BRENCHLEY, KENT3>RDNOVEMBER 2007
Jamie Carpenter was watching TV in the living room when he heard the tyres of his dadâs car crunch across the gravel drive much, much earlier than usual. Jamie looked at the clock on the wall above the TV and frowned. It was quarter past five. Julian Carpenter had never, to the best of Jamieâs memory, arrived home from work before seven oâclock, and even that was only on special occasions like his mumâs birthday or when Arsenal were playing in the Champions League.
He hauled himself off the sofa, a tall, slightly awkward fourteen-year-old with a skinny frame and unruly brown hair, and went to the window. His dadâs silver Mercedes was parked where it always was, in front of the garage that stood apart from their house. Jamie could see his father in the glow of the carâs brake lights, pulling something out of the boot.
Maybe heâs sick, Jamie thought. But as he looked closely at his dad, he didnât think he looked ill; his eyes were bright and wide in the red light and he was moving quickly, putting things from the boot into his pockets. And Jamie noticed something else; he kept looking over his shoulder towards the road, as if he thoughtâ
Something moved in the corner of Jamieâs eye, near the oak tree at the bottom of the garden. He turned his head, gooseflesh breaking out suddenly along his arms and back, and he realised he was scared. Something is wrong here, he thought. Very wrong.
The tree looked the same as it always did, its gnarled trunk tilted to the left, its huge roots rippling the lawn and bending the garden wall out towards the road.
Whatever Jamie had seen, his father had seen it too. He was standing very still behind the car, staring up into the branches of the tree. Jamie looked closely at the tree and the long black shadows the moonlight cast across the grass. Whatever had moved wasnât moving any more. But as he stared, he realised that there was something different.
