Publisher's Synopsis
The Timekeeper's Widow
In the fog-drenched streets of Victorian London, Eleanor Hargrave buries her husband-renowned clockmaker Thomas Hargrave-under strange and sudden circumstances. But mourning turns to mystery when Eleanor discovers a secret workshop, a journal full of impossible sketches, and a clock that ticks backward. As time itself begins to fracture around her, Eleanor is pulled into a hidden world of secret societies, temporal experiments, and shadowy figures who claim her husband was no ordinary man. With reality slipping and memories shifting, she must untangle the truth about the man she loved-and face a terrible choice: restore what was lost, or preserve what remains. Blending historical fiction with speculative suspense, The Timekeeper's Widow is a haunting tale of grief, resilience, and the fragile threads that bind time and memory. Perfect for fans of The Night Circus, The Time Traveler's Wife, and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
