Cobwebs in the Dark Locations - Part Two - Springfield NZ

The second location used in Cobwebs in the Dark is Springfield, a small town on the South Island of New Zealand.  Abi and Gideon go here after a news story breaks and they need to deal with it.  No spoilers!  In 2007, a statue of a giant pink doughnut was erected to promote the upcoming Simpsons Movie.  It was set alight and destroyed by an arsonist in September 2009, but since the book is taking place in May 2009, it would have still been there.  ​
Springfield is at the foot of the Southern Alps, and the person Abi and Gideon visit is staying in a ranch, just outside the town, that has amazing views of the mountains.
