The Clockmaker's Daughter by Kate Morton
2.0

As many other reviewers have written, this book had way too many characters and was far too long. I tried hard to focus on the main characters of this multi-timeline book but who knew that I was supposed to retain even the smallest cameo appearance of someone like, for example, Jeremiah? For instance, he was mentioned off-handedly three times within the first 100 pages and not again until 400 pages in - but it turns out that his role was sort of critical.
For me, too much of the mystery was based on people not speaking their minds.
