Answer:-

Jana asked the listener if he/she had read the book.

Explanation:-

  • As we don't have the object in reporting verb, we used 'listener'

  • Here, the reporting verb is in 'past indefinite tense' and the reported speech is in 'present perfect tense'. Therefore,according to the rules, 'have read' becomes 'had read'

  • And we use 'if' instead of the inverted comma in interrogative sentences.
