Silver Threads, The Memory House Series, Book Five by Bette Lee Crosby is a delightful, but poignant book. I gave it five stars.

"Since the beginning of time the Keeper alone has been challenged with the task of keeping each person’s scale in balance. A bit of happiness and then a small stone of sorrow, until the lives he has in his charge are measured evenly.

"You might think such power is universal, but it is not. There is a silver thread that crisscrosses the landscape of scales and connects strangers to one another. Not even the Keeper of the Scales can control the events traveling through the thread. The only thing he can do is try to equalize the balance once it has been thrown off."

Drew and Brooke Bishop stayed a Memory House and later Miss Elizabeth did.

Elizabeth Cunningham thought: "I never recognized the source of our problem and kept thinking that once we crossed this bridge of contention we’d find happiness on the other side."

This book brought tears. The characters are beautifully written. They will long remain in my memory.

I received a complimentary copy from the author and Bent Pine Publishing. That did not change my opinion for this review.

This book is in pre-order status until September 14, 2016 so I could not leave a review on Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
