THE COPPER BEECH
Book ID/图书代码： 03035007B14130
English Summary/英文概要： In the Irish town of Schancarrig, the young people carve their initials-and those of their loves—into the copper beech tree in front of the schoolhouse. But not even Father Gunn, the parish priest, who knows most of what goes on behind Shancarrig’s closed doors, or Dr. Jims, the village doctor, who knows all the rest, realizes that not everything in the placid village is what it seems.
Unexpected passions and fear are bringing together the lives of so many, such as the sensitive new priest and Miss Ross, the slight, beautiful schoolteacher... Leonora, the privileged daughter of the town’s richest family and Foxy Dunne, whose father did time in jail...and Nessa Ryan, whose parents run Ryan’s Hotel, and two very different young men. For now the secrets in Shancarrig’s shadows are starting to be revealed, from innocent vanities and hidden loves to crimes of the heart...and even to murder.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在愛爾蘭的Schancarrig小鎮，年輕人— — 和他們的愛人-在校舍前面的紫水青岡木(銅山毛櫸樹)上刻上他們各自名字的首字母。但不僅只有教區牧師，Gunn神父，知道Shancarrig背後所發生的故事，連同村裡的醫生，Jims大夫，也知道其他的一切故事，意識到寧靜的村莊並不像看上去那樣一如既往地安寧。(Sandy)
