The House of One Hundred Clocks

"The House of One Hundred Clocks" by A.M. Howell is a spellbinding historical mystery set in Cambridge in 1905. Helena and her clockmaker father move into the grand, eccentric home of Mr. Westcott, a wealthy collector who offers her father the job of a lifetime. However, the offer comes with a bizarre, non-negotiable condition: all one hundred clocks in the house must be wound up and kept ticking constantly—if even one stops, they will be cast out with nothing. Helena soon discovers that the house hides dangerous secrets: locked rooms, missing treasures, and a shadowed past. As ticking clocks count down her time, Helena must use her courage, wit, and observational skills to solve the mystery before the final clock stops ticking.

Because it delivers a fast-paced, atmospheric historical mystery packed with clever puzzles, high stakes, and a captivating race against time.

For middle-grade readers, young adults, fans of historical mysteries, and anyone who loves atmospheric Whodunits set in mysterious grand houses.
