About the book

Synopsis

An ordinary suburban house hides a dark secret in this chilling mystery novel. Leah hates the house and hates living in a mess while her dad does the much needed renovations. The house gives her the creeps and her fears are realised when the ghost of a boy appears in her bedroom. She discovers he lived in the house in the 1970s - but how did he die? And why does nobody seem to know he is dead? Leah's attempts to unravel the truth lead her into unexpected danger...

This is a gripping tale in which Leah's story is interspersed with the ghost's own first person story, keeping the reader one step ahead.

What the critics say

Teenage Leah moves into a new house, and finds her bedroom already occupied, by the ghost of a boy from the 1970s. Although the book is Kendal's most chilling to date, it is also warm and funny.
- Jewish Chronicle

Penny Kendal has created an all too real thriller in Can You Hear Me?, one that focuses on domestic violence and its chilling conclusion . . . Recommended for children aged 13+.
