Description

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO FOR A YEAR OFF WORK?


Meet Barri Brown. Respected teacher. Upstanding citizen of Guernsey. Down for a bit of law-breaking…

Barri is preparing for a year’s paid maternity leave but there’s a catch:

She isn’t pregnant.

With seven foam bumps, a wardrobe full of smock dresses and a great pregnancy heist planned, all Barri has to do is blag it until she can disappear for good, without getting caught and being sent to prison for fraud. Child’s play.

But can she really get away with telling the mother of all lies?
