The Clockmakers Daughter - Morton Kate - książka
Producent: Pan Books
From the acclaimed author Kate Morton, known for her bestsellers like "The House at Riverton" and "The Secret Keeper," comes her captivating sixth novel, "The Clockmaker's Daughter." The story begins in the summer of 1862, where a group of promising young artists, led by the enthusiastic Edward Radcliffe, gathers at Birchwood Manor along the Upper Thames. Their goal is to immerse themselves in a month of secluded creativity and inspiration. However, their retreat ends in tragedy—one woman is found murdered, another vanishes without a trace, a valuable heirloom is missing, and Edward Radcliffe's life is shattered.Fast forward more than a century, and we meet Elodie Winslow, a young archivist living in London. She stumbles upon a leather satchel containing two items that seemingly have no connection: an evocative sepia photograph of a striking woman in Victorian attire and an artist’s sketchbook featuring a drawing of a distinctive twin-gabled house nestled by a river bend. Yet for reasons she cannot explain, Birchwood Manor feels oddly familiar to Elodie, and she is inexplicably drawn to uncover the identity of the enigmatic woman captured in the photograph. "The Clockmaker’s Daughter" is woven with multiple narratives spanning various points in time. It unfolds as a complex tale of intrigue, encompassing murder, mystery, and theft, as well as art, love, and sorrow. At the heart of the novel lies the haunting voice of Birdie Bell, the clockmaker’s daughter, who, though forgotten by history, remains an eternal observer of the events that have transpired.
