'How do you know if your friends are talking about you behind your back, or if a boy really likes you? They could act innocent, but you'd know from the rumours. You'd hear the whispers. But what if you couldn't hear those whispers anymore? Being a teenager is hard enough. But being a deaf teenager...Hard doesn't even begin to cover it.' (Publisher's blurb)
