  She's never known what it is not to succeed - and she never lets down her guard. Why would she? She's Alice, after all, the one people come to, the one with all the answers.

  Her first term in Cambridge, her dream college, is everything she imagined it would be. But one night, after an infamous college 'bop', something happens that tears apart the fabric of Alice's world. Something that she can't even bring herself to mention.

  In the weeks that follow, slowly Alice's friends are cut adrift, as she tries to get to grips with her new reality alone. Her weekly meetings with Flo, the stranger on the bench, become her lifeline. But try as Alice might to put to rest the dark truth of that awful night, she slowly realises that there are some journeys that can not be avoided.

  Can You See Me? is an unforgettable story of new beginnings, of Cambridge life and of a young woman's struggle to reclaim herself and her lost wonderland.

  But Soon her dark secret becomes too much and the cracks begin to show. Her weekly meetings with Flo, the stranger on the bench, become her lifeline. And try as she might to bury the dark truth of that awful night, she begins to realise that some things have to be faced up to.

  It's time for Alice to look at her broken reflection and start to put the pieces back together...
