Damnation Spring - Ash Davidson

*''Probably the best novel I''ll read this year. It''s about work and love and characters who ring true. By the time I was 50 pages in I couldn''t put it down. Can''t stop thinking about it'' Stephen King*For generations, Rich Gundersen''s family has made a living felling giant redwoods on California''s rugged coast. It''s treacherous work, and though his son, Chub, wants nothing more than to step into his father''s boots, Rich longs for a bigger future for him. Colleen just wants a brother or sister for Chub, but she''s losing hope. There is so much that she and Rich don''t talk about these days ­- including her suspicions that there is something very wrong at the heart of the forest on which their community is built. When Rich is offered the opportunity to buy a plot of timber which borders Damnation Grove, he leaps at the chance - without telling Colleen. Soon the Gundersens find themselves on opposite sides of a battle that threatens to rip their town apart. Can they find a way to emerge from this together?
