I am having trouble with my binary tree program. Designed to read in a file which contains names of 3 files and read each one of the 3 files and perform operations. My biggest problem is with the first file. The first line is an integer which tells how many chapters are in the book. From there it will read the next line which contains the title of the chapter then the number of words in that chapter. Will read each word individually and check to see if its already in the tree if it is, then increment the frequency of the word and not add a duplicate node to the tree, but if its not found then add the word to the tree. From the main program I am calling a function to create a new chapter, within that function I am calling a function to search my binary tree for that chapter and tell me if that word exists by returning 1 or 0. The first word always gets added to the tree because the tree is null, no values have been added to it. Problem is every word after the first word, isn't being inserted into the tree. The left and right node of each node is always null. I checked my insert function many times, and spent hours debugging, but cant come up with a solution. Can someone give me some direction? Here is my code from my program.

struct binaryTree{
       int frequency;       
       struct binaryTree * left;
       struct binaryTree * right;
       char word[20];
       };
struct chapter{
       struct chapter *next;
       struct binaryTree *words;
       int distinct;
       int height;
       char chapterTitle[20];
};

struct chapter * readChapters(struct chapter * list, FILE * infile);
struct binaryTree * addWord(struct binaryTree * words, char * word);
int searchFrequency(struct binaryTree * words, char * word);
struct binaryTree * insertWord(struct binaryTree * words, struct binaryTree * temp);
void deleteWord(struct binaryTree * words);

       int totalChapters = 0, counter=0, totalSearching=0, totalDeleting=0;
       struct chapter * list = NULL;
      // list = intializeChapter(list);
       
       //Get filename which holds the names of the other 3 files.
       printf("Enter the name of the file: ");
       scanf("%s", &fileName);
       
       infile = fopen(fileName, "r");
       //scan in the three file names
       fscanf(infile, "%s%s%s", &file1,&file2,&file3);
       //close file which contains names of three other files.     
       fclose(infile);

       infile = fopen(file1, "r");
