HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO FOR A YEAR OFF WORK . . . ? 'The comedy gold standard' – Stylist 'This book will make you guffaw out loud' – Prima 'It’s one that’s sure to have you laughing and crying in equal measures' – Express Meet Barri Brown. Respected teacher. Upstanding citizen of Guernsey. Down for a bit of law-breaking . . . Barri has spent years slaving away as a teacher and covering for colleagues with kids. When her husband vanishes – along with her savings – it’s the final straw. And so, she hatches a wild plan: fake a pregnancy and use the paid maternity leave to start over somewhere new. With seven foam bumps, a wardrobe full of smock dresses and a great pregnancy heist underway, all Barri has to do is blag it until she can disappear for good – without getting caught and being sent to prison for fraud. How hard could it be? On a small island like Guernsey, it’s a motherfaking nightmare. And to make matters worse, when Barri’s fake pregnancy forces her to make genuine connections with people for the first time in years, she begins to understand the true cost of her deception . . . Will she really get away with telling the mother of all lies? __ PRAISE FOR MOTHERFAKER 'A bold, brilliant and bonkers caper’ – ALEXANDRA POTTER 'Brilliantly original and hilariously executed' – ROSIE WALSH 'A very clever novel' – Belfast Telegraph 'Funny, moving, relatable and keeps you on the edge of your seat' – LIBBY PAGE 'I raced through it' – Daily Mail 'I couldn’t put this down! Hilarious, surprising, and sneakily tender' – NATALIE SUE 'A crazy, screwball comedy with real heart and soul' – SARAH HAYWOOD
