I am really desperate I LOVED a book as a young teen but I can not remeber the name of it, Ive been googling like mad but no use
I can describe a fair bit of it so hopefully someone will recognise it and be able to tell me the name or author or both!!!
A tree grew on a sacrifical site and its roots remebered the evil which took place there. when a small boys family moved to a new house which had belonged to his grandfather (I think the family name was williamson or wilkinson) the boy becomes attached to the tree.
Incouraging local children to drink the sap while being guided by his grandfather.
one child is hung by the others after "a trial"
the boy threatens his teacher with a machete (the blurb mentions this too)
erm the teacher concives a baby which was conceived under that tree
thats all i remeber roughly I know its not much but it was 10 years ago atleast since i read it last and i REALLY want to read it again
