{"product_id":"9781415210314","title":"The Artist Vanishes","description":"\u003cp\u003eA conceptual art project goes dangerously wrong...\u003cbr\u003eWhere is Sophie?\u003cbr\u003eInfamous Cape Town artist Sophie Tugiers has been missing for several years. Her mysterious disappearance caused a brief ripple before dissolving into a distant media memory. Sophie's controversial art alienated many\u003cbr\u003epeople: those who didn't consider her a sell-out thought her last exhibition was sadistic - after all, one of her experimental participants committed suicide.\u003cbr\u003eJames Dempster is a jaded filmmaker with a whiskey problem. Following his acrimonious divorce, he needs a project to relaunch his stalled career. When he discovers he's living in the flat Sophie once rented, he is drawn into her sinister tale.\u003cbr\u003eWhat really happened to Sophie? What are her friends and enemies hiding? After James's flat is ransacked and his research stolen, he realises unearthing the truth could lead not to his redemption but to his demise.\u003cbr\u003eThe Artist Vanishes explores ambition and success, guilt and responsibility, the ethics around animal research, and art's lasting impact on those it touches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Terry+Westby-Nunn\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eTerry Westby-Nunn\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Terry Westby-Nunn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47379284787363,"sku":"9781415210314","price":300.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781415210314_26627707-0779-45ef-9d38-f96bc2f58892.jpg?v=1776531780","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781415210314","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
