A WATERTIGHT CONSPIRACY
Set principally in New Zealand in the first decade of the twenty-first century, the plot is based around the leaky building scandal that has beset the country. The cost in financial terms has been estimated to be in excess of NZ$20 billion but there are no statistics that enumerate how many people have been affected by the problem both directly and indirectly. Is it possible that one of the main causes of the problem that is, allowing the use of untreated timber eventuated as a consequence of external influences?

The book tells the story of how Fred and Elsie Robertson become unwittingly involved in a leaky building debacle and of how they and their lawyers attempt to get restitution from those responsible as a consequence of their negligent actions and also describes a series of theoretical conspiracy plots associated with the case.

Her two marriages—to the writers Niven Busch (The Postman Always Rings Twice; Duel in the Sun) and Robert Anderson (Tea and Sympathy; I Never Sang for My Father)—provide a good deal of the drama, warmth, poignancy and heartbreak of her life story. “I never wanted to be a star,” she told the noted biographer Donald Spoto at dinner in 197...
