Prepare to lose yourself in the enchanting new novel from Kate Morton.
My father called me Birdie; he said I was his little bird. Others knew me as his child, the clockmaker’s daughter. Edward called me his muse, his destiny. I am remembered as a thief, an imposter, a girl who rose above her station, who was not chaste. 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 in rural Oxfordshire. 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 150 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 it 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.

A story without a harmonious end
Sometimes difficult to follow. After such a detailed story the ending was rather abrupt, a pity!

Gute Geschichte mit Längen
Sehr nett ausgedachte Geschichte, schön zum nebenher hören, nicht gerade anspruchsvoll und teilweise zu viele Längen.

modernes Märchen -the Art of Story Telling
Die Geschichte schlängelt sich durch die Zeitebenen ... wie die Themse, märchenhaft, verzweigt, mit vielen Windungen... die viktorianische Epoche mit ihrem Aufschwung des wissenschaftlichen Forschens aber auch der Begeisterung für Malerei und der Kunst des Geschichten Erzählens ist der historische Startpunkt, von dem aus die Geschichte bis in die heutige Zeit reicht .... Viele ineinander mehr oder weniger eng verwobene Lebensläufe und detaillierte Schilderungen von Menschen, Landschaften und Ereignissen weben eine dichte Atmosphäre und erlauben ein eintauchen in diese magische Welt des Erzählens ...
