In 2024, Manchester was being treated for cancer, but was writing a novel. The laptop containing her work was stolen from her home and she was forced to begin writing again. The book titled Sunshine Road was published in 2026. It is a semi-autobiographical work set in Christchurch and Eastbourne, Lower Hutt during the 1960s and 70s.^[1]
