Seventeenth-century Amsterdam is a city in the grip of tulip mania, basking in the wealth it has generated. Sophia’s husband Cornelis, an ageing merchant, is among those grown rich from this exotic new flower. To celebrate, he commissions a talented young artist to paint him with his young bride. But as the portrait grows, so does the passion between Sophia and the painter; and as ambitions, desires and dreams breed an intricate deception, their reckless gamble propels their lives towards a thrilling and tragic conclusion.

Description
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.

requires patience
slow to get into. I nearly gave up before the pace picked up and the story came together. I do understand why, and once the climax reached, I couldn't get the story out of my mind. oh Lily.

A bit drawn out
First and foremost, Joanne Froggatt is hands down one of the best narrators in the industry. I wish she would read everything!
I don’t know why but I found it difficult to be absorbed by this book. It’s well written but I did find parts dragged on a bit. I almost bothered that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I felt I should but can’t seem to pin point the reason why.

Good, but confusing.
A little confusing for an audio book with all the jumping around between characters and dates. Sometimes hard to follow. Wasn't sure if I'd missed something when I reached the end. The narrator, however, was very good.

Wonderful story
I loved the story, it had me completely engrossed. I’ve always loved Joanne Froggatt’s narration and I search for her when I’m looking for audio books.
This story was magical, full of complete characters that made you care about them. I would heartily recommend.

Compelling storyline
I was struggling to keep all the characters straight at first, so about 20 or so chapters in I started over and I was really glad I did. I very much enjoyed the story from then on and looked forward to each listening session. I highly recommend it.

Stellar
This is by far the best audiobook I have ever listened to.
The narration by Joanna Froggett is impeccable.
There is a lot to this book.
I found I had to just listen to it and not trying to multitask
or I would miss something and would have to go back and listen again.
Five starts all the way for this audiobook!

Excellent!!
I love Kate Morton; her writing is absolute magic. I love how she takes seemingly unrelated stories and weaves them into an intricately woven plot, and, while I admit the Clockmaker’s Daughter wasn’t my favourite novel, this tale was no exception.
First off, I need to state that this particular book was a slow burn. It was a good 30 - 40% into the story before I truly started to get into the groove of the narrative. However, as with other Kate Morton novels, it was an absolute joy to see how the pieces of the mystery fell into place like a jigsaw puzzle; it is why I love this author so much. I can’t imagine how long it takes her to write one of these novels as she has clearly done a ton of research.
As for the characters (and there are a ton in this book), Kate Morton has once again done a superb job appealing each of them to the reader, whether it be in a positive or negative way. One can't help but feel something for each and every one of the characters in the book. My only complaint in this regard is that there were almost too many characters in The Clockmaker's Daughter - it was quite a task to keep track of each on and their connections to the main story.
Finally, in terms of the narration, Joanne Froggatt did an excellent job bringing the story and its large cast of characters to life. She was excellent to listen to, which was important as the story was over 17 hours long.
Overall, while this wasn't my favourite Kate Morton novel (The Secret Keeper will always have my heart), The Clockmaker's Daughter was an excellent read/listen and another fine example of why I love Kate Morton's stories so much. I would absolutely recommend this novel to my fellow readers and audio addicts.
