A Dog Called Homeless by Sarah Lean (author)

When Cally Fisher sees her dead mother, real as anything, no one believes her. So Cally stops talking – what’s the point if no one is listening? The only other living soul who sees Cally’s mum is a mysterious wolfhound, who always seems to be there when her mum appears. But without a voice, how will Cally convince anyone that Mum is still with them? And how will she ever persuade Dad that the huge silver-grey dog is their last link with her? An outstandingly assured debut novel from a brave new talent.
