Prompted by a very publicdisplay of cheek from a junior youth club member, out of his tiny little mind on vodka, Agnes sets outto force the club’s closure using any means she can. However, senior club members prove to be morethan a match, coming up with a cunning plan to bring about her downfall. After a promising start, events spiral out of control until the armed forces must be deployed to restore peace. Cars are set on fire; a house is blown to smithereens, ferrets are raced, cows sing, missiles are launched, and a frog croaks.Featuring a cast of eccentric landowners, doddering members of parliament, and a doctor whobuilds rockets flown by hamsters, this laugh-out-loud, action-packed fiction culminates in a showdown with explosive consequences.
