From the bestselling author of The House at Riverton and The Secret
Keeper, Kate Morton brings us her dazzling sixth novel, The
Clockmaker's Daughter. My real name, no one remembers. The truth
about that summer, no one else knows. In the summer of 1862, a
group of young artists led by the passionate and talented Edward
Radcliffe descends upon Birchwood Manor on the banks of the Upper
Thames. Their plan: to spend a secluded summer month in a haze of
inspiration and creativity. But by the time their stay is over, one
woman has been shot dead while another has disappeared; a priceless
heirloom is missing; and Edward Radcliffe's life is in ruins. Over
one hundred and fifty years later, Elodie Winslow, a young
archivist in London, uncovers a leather satchel containing two
seemingly unrelated items: a sepia photograph of an
arresting-looking woman in Victorian clothing, and an artist's
sketchbook containing the drawing of a twin-gabled house on the
bend of a river. Why does Birchwood Manor feel so familiar to
Elodie? And who is the beautiful woman in the photograph? Will she
ever give up her secrets? Told by multiple voices across time, The
Clockmaker's Daughter is a story of murder, mystery and thievery,
of art, love and loss. And flowing through its pages like a river,
is the voice of a woman who stands outside time, whose name has
been forgotten by history, but who has watched it all unfold:
Birdie Bell, the clockmaker's daughter.
