内容简介 Solomon is very angry—at the teachers and his father who have failed him, at the mother who has left him, and also at himself. He can't bear to be at school or at home. His refuge is one corner of the church graveyard, where nothing flourishes except a single rowan tree. Then one day, workmen uproot the tree and, as it dies, a terrible force comes to life. Solomon hears whispers and first-grader Amy Miller dreams of a strange lady with an alluring song. Solomon finds out the graveyard was both the site of a witch hunt and the burial place for small pox victims. Did the witch leave a curse for the miller's descendants? Solomon must uncover the mysteries of the past and save Amy. Can he find the strength to fight the ancient and evil power that has been unleashed?
作者简介 Theresa Breslin is the award-winning author of such books as
Divided City, The Dream Master, The Medici Seal, and
Simon's Challenge. 编辑推荐 Review "The Telegraph said 'Essential reading'; The Guardian 'Totally convincing... Gripping to the last'; The Times 'breathtaking'; The Daily Telegraph 'a terrific read'; Books for Keeps 'quality etched right through'; The Independent 'one of those rare books that makes you want to put your life on hold for as long as it takes to finish it... Formidably good writing, full of wit and wisdom, from which children will go away encouraged rather than demoralised at the possibilities of the human condition.'"
