Crawshaw Street is full of secrets…
The resident of number five has a big one, and it seems someone else knows about it. Anonymous notes arrive, and they threaten to upend everything. That can’t be allowed to happen. Terrible events unfurl—again—mirroring the past, but can they be kept a secret this time?
A kidnap on the street throws everything into chaos. Ishan Chandpuri is dragged from the betting shop by two big men and bundled into a car. Are his gambling days over? Residents are questioned by the police, but no one can help much. “It all happened so fast…”
Nitya Chandpuri also has a secret. If her husband hadn’t tried to play her, none of this would be happening. Not only is she dealing with twins from the Cardigan Estate who can make anything disappear, she’s got another problem that needs solving. She’s being watched, and it has to stop.
Everyone has something they want to hide, but karma is trying her best to reveal what’s hidden. It’s just a case of whether certain people can make things go away before retribution lands on their doorstep…

If you are missing reading the cardigan series then you are definitely in for a treat. Welcome to Carshaw Street. The first book that focuses on the lives of people who live on the Cardigan Estate.
It began with
Hell hath no fury like a woman betrayed. Everybody was talking bar 1 person
On Crawshaw Street
everything was fine, even boring to some until they decided to play a dangerous game of I know what you did.
Someone has taken this seriously and is out for revenge.
I can promise the following
Bloodshed
Blackmail
Revenge
And
Glimpses of George and Greg.
Recommend if you love cardigan series.

Brilliant book!
Couldn't out it down. Can't wait for the next one in the series. I have pre ordered them. The next one is due at the end of next month. I'm going to read one of Emmy Ellis's other book series while I wait.
