Lucinda Riley, author of current fiction chart-topper The Missing Sister, has died

The most recent book in that series,
The Missing Sister, was released last month and shot to the top of New Zealand’s book charts.
According to Riley’s publisher, Pan Macmillan, it was the biggest fiction launch for a book in New Zealand since 2019.

Four other
Seven Sisters novels had also re-entered the local charts, which Booksellers Association chief executive Dan Slevin said was a pattern whenever a new addition to the series was released.
“We’ve seen that her books come in waves,” he said. “When there’s a new book, people go back to the old ones and they all go back in the charts as people discover them and realise they can absorb them all.”

Twizel wasn't built to last, but it ended up becoming one of New Zealand's absolute winners! Twizel was built in the late 1960s as a temporary town to house the workers on the hydroelectric scheme and was meant to be demolished in the early 1980s. The residents fought a lengthy legal battle with the government and the town was eventually handed over to the Mackenzie District Council. Back in the day you could buy a Twizel house for a ridiculously low sum of money, sometimes as cheap as a few thousand. There are stories of people trading Twizel sections during poker games!
