WINNER OF THE GOLDSBORO LAST LAUGH AWARD

The latest hilarious and scathing satire from Ruth Dudley Edwards

'...the Turner Prize...is named after an innovative painter of genius and is awarded annually to whatever bluffer has caught the eye of the knaves and fools who dominate the contemporary art world.'

The outrageous and irrepressible Baroness Ida 'Jack' Troutbeck, has another cultural battle to win against the British Establishment: this time, against the horror of conceptual art, as demonstrated by the likes of Tracy Emin and Damien Hirst.

But the day after she enthusiastically announces this war to her close friends, Baroness Troutbeck disappears, together with nine other people connected to the modern art world. And when dead bodies start appearing in the form of notorious artistic creations, Troutbeck’s friends realise they must find her before it is too late...
