SEEN AND NOT HEARD.
"Seen and not Heard is one of the more original thrillers I've read. The twists will keep you guessing until the very last page." by Rick Barnes, Author of The Outcast Club series.
"I greatly enjoyed Seen and Not Heard - what a unique and emotional story! Deborah White's skilled storytelling drew me in from the first page!" Amanda Adkins.
REVIEWS ON AMAZON:
"Great to finally see a main character who is dyslexic represented in a book. I enjoyed reading about all her issues and how she overcame them. I would recommend this book." Rachael
"Absolutely loved this book. Well written and I couldn't put it down!! I'd definitely recommend this book!" Mary Thursby
"This had me hooked from page one, wanting to know where we'd end up! There are some really, really lovely images conjured up by the writer through the story which made for a great read. Inventive, creative little take and I'd definitely recommend! I loved it!" Rachel
"Brilliant read...loved the way it jumped from house to Molly. Captavating from beginning to end...especially the end.😯😯😯" Donna Dickson
"If you fancy a psychological thriller, with an element of quirkiness, then check out ‘Seen and Not Heard’ by Deborah Jean White.
Told from two points of view and beginning with Molly. Still a teenager and fresh out of school, Molly falls into a job as a Classroom Assistant and settles in well until the children slowly become absent from her class.
The second point of view is ‘house’. It takes a bit of getting used to, but before long, I can guarantee that you will begin to see things as the house does. It loves children, but isn’t too sure about the adults!
The story had me gripped from the outset and I honestly could not put it down. Yes, it’s slightly strange because I’ve never read a book written as a house before, but weirdly it works. The author brings each character to life, even the house, and we are carried along by memories and present-day as different timelines are visited.
I found the ending surreal, but believable, and I loved the entire book from beginning to end." Sam
"This book had me hooked from page one with lots of twists and turns along the way. The main character, Molly, has a unique voice that easily pulled me in, and seeing the world through the "eyes" of House was a really interesting concept - something I've never seen before. We see Molly dealing with the pains of growing up while trying to solve the mystery of why the children have stopped speaking. Overall, a fantastic and original YA thriller." Amy
