When Robert (or Kidder, as his best friend calls him) decides to impress at a job interview by making up a son, he discovers that maintaining the lie is far harder than he thought - so he invents a story that `Brodie' has been kidnapped.
After all, it's not like they're going to find the fake boy. But a few weeks later, Kidder receives a call to collect his nonexistent son from the police station, a boy who looks exactly like the picture he photoshopped...
`A dark and quirky debut - funny, sad, thought-provoking and unexpected' -Emma D'Costa, Commonwealth Writers
`This is a remarkable debut, written with great warmth and wit. By turns devastating and hilarious, Lynda Clark's Beyond Kidding had me from the very start, and it didn't let me go' -Sarah Jackson, author of Pelt and winner of the Seamus Heaney Prize 2013
