Last night I finished The Clockmaker's Daughter by Kate Morton. I loved it! Stunning. 5/5.
A literary ghost story. Stories of people linked by a house and a fairytale across 170 years. Told in an intricately woven pattern, each piece is its own beautiful and very human tale but also an essential part in the mysteries that link all the pieces together. A large cast of diverse characters, wonderfully and deftly portrayed. It is not fast paced, but flows in deceptively gentle currents that sweep you along until the links start to drop into place and the whole remarkable story becomes clear and quite devastating. It does become quite a complex story but it is clearly told and very satisfying. I'm looking forward to revisiting it, as I think that will add even more.
