The Clockmaker’s Daughter by Kate Morton is a richly layered novel that intertwines multiple timelines and narratives. In 2017, London archivist Elodie Winslow discovers a mysterious satchel containing a photograph of a Victorian woman and a sketchbook depicting a house that feels hauntingly familiar. Her curiosity leads her to Birchwood Manor, a country estate with a tragic history dating back to 1862, when a summer retreat for artists ended in a shocking death, a missing woman, and a stolen heirloom. As Elodie delves deeper, the story unfolds through various voices, including that of Birdie Bell—the clockmaker’s daughter—whose spirit lingers, witnessing the unfolding events across generations. Morton masterfully explores themes of love, loss, art, and the enduring impact of the past on the present.
