About this listen

 Crossing oceans, cultures, and timelines, THE SILVER THREAD is the brand new Kate Lord Brown novel coming Summer 2026.

From decadent Cairo in the 1930s to bohemian Beirut in the 1970s, an epic yet intimate story of great love and lasting friendship . . .

'Epic, sweeping and gloriously romantic’ Veronica Henry
‘Sumptuous and immersive’ Platinum

As her home, Beirut, teeters on the brink of war, Polly Fitzgerald has one last story to tell – about her best friend, Juno, and their life together in Cairo. Juno was vital and brilliant – and determined to succeed in her ambition to uncover Nefertiti’s tomb.

But Juno and Polly’s friendship was bound by a secret, one that has never been told. Now, as Polly’s daughter, Lucie, travels to Beirut to be with her dying mother, the mystery of what happened many years ago must be revealed . . .

I have just finished this story. It’s so good the two stories woven into one . Beautifully spoken and with such a warmth.

I would love everyone who likes a great story. To listen to this it’s so good and I would put it in my top 10 books for this year infact I’d say number two .

Highly recommend. Enjoy

Absolute stunner of a story

I love this book from start to finish. It is a lovely story with equal amounts of happy and sad , realistic characters that you can’t help but become invested in. This book can be enjoyed by anyone , you do not have to have a particular interest in the theme in order to enjoy the story. It’s beautifully written and beautifully read. The only downside was, that although it concluded perfectly…I didn’t want it to end. Would make a great T.V series.

Strong believable characters , well structured storyline.
