Now it can be told. The biggest majority of the Debra Chase by Herself series in the Sunday Shocker, which I am sposed to of written, was a load of rubbish, a virago of lies from start to finish.’
Thus does Page Three celebrity Debra Chase set out to put the record straight about her life in the tabloid fast-lane and the early years when she was still known as Marjory Linda Chase, growing up in Seathorpe with her Dad and Step-Mum Babs, ‘in those far-off days of the forgotten Seventies’.
Debra tells the story of her climb to stardom from the Donna Bella Rosa School of Fashion and how she met “The Sir”, Sir Monty Pratt, the ‘bonking baronet’ who so adored her and who was so compromised by that story in the Shocker. She reveals the Debra Chase Diet Muffin Scandal and her part in it, as well as her on-off affair with hunky goal-ace, Brian Boffe.
By turns outrageously funny and uncannily affecting, BIMBO is a masterpiece of entertainment and virtuoso characterisation from one of our finest novelists.

A treat for sore brains
A great tragi-comedy . . . this book is up there in lights with the funniest, the saddest and the best novels in English. It is wrought by a massive intelligence operating an exquisite and lacerating sense of irony
Hilarious . . . with a ring of authenticity in every gleeful and sleazy line
It takes a hugely skilled wordsmith to make a banal world like Debra Chase's such compulsive reading . . . Read. Enjoy
The sort of story which will make you laugh until you cry
A finely crafted pastiche, as well done in its own way as Peter Ackroyd's Hawksmoor
