The Copper Beech is as soothing as a cup of tea.
In the little Irish town of Shancarrig, 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 closed doors, or Dr. Jims, the village doctor, who knows all the rest, realize that not everything in the placid village is what it seems.
