The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova
I read a little of The Historian before (I mean to finish it this summer, if I can), which I rather liked, except it creeped me out and was more than a little violent.
I don't quite know why I picked up The Swan Thieves after having read all the negative reviews on Amazon; sure enough, I gave up halfway and skimmed through to the end.

I recently learned that Kostova got $2 million for her debut novel, The Historian, not including revenue from book sales. I'm more curious than ever to read that book again, but for sure, The Swan Thieves is no where near worth that amount of money.
