The Clockmaker's Daughter by Kate Morton
4.0
4.25/5 stars
This was such a nice surprise. I didn't have high expectations from this book when I started reading it, but the first chapter truly grabbed my attention. Is a whodunit story with multiple points of view, a writing style (from our main character) that reminded me of the narrator of The Book Thief, romance, death and lies that are mixed in with the truth.
I didn't enjoy how the story unfolded, it felt like the characters didn't get the closure that I've been hoping for. I also got lost in the POVs and trying to make all the connections, but I still enjoyed annotating about each thought and answer I had as the story developed.
Nonetheless, I recommend this book to any reader seeking a more historical fiction murder mystery.
