The Haunting of Nelson Street

The Ghosts of Crowford, Book 1

By: Amy Cross

Narrated by: Hannah Burman

Crowford, a sleepy coastal town in the south of England, might seem like an oasis of calm and tranquility. Beneath the surface, however, dark secrets are waiting to claim fresh victims, and ghostly figures plot revenge.

Having finally decided to leave the hustle of London, Daisy and Richard Johnson buy two houses on Nelson Street, a picturesque street in the center of Crowford. One house is perfect and ready to move into, while the other is a fire-ravaged wreck that needs a lot of work. They figure they have plenty of time to work on the damaged house while Daisy recovers from a traumatic event.

Soon, they discover that the two houses share a common link to the past. Something awful once happened on Nelson Street, something that shook the town to its core. Before they can face Crowford's horrors, however, Daisy and Richard have to deal with the ghosts of their own recent history. What is Daisy hiding, and why does Richard feel strangely drawn to one of the town's oldest inhabitants?

The Haunting of Nelson Street is a ghost story about a young couple fighting for their future, and about a town trying to escape the clutches of its past.

Great ghost story!

Loved the author’s new twist on a spooky ghost story. Kept me guessing until the end. This would make a great movie! Keep them coming Amy!

Things Are Not Always What They Appear

Daisy and her husband Richard are just trying to find a place to start fresh. They want to leave the past behind them, forget what happened in London, and move forward. But Daisy is about to find that there is more to their new house than just a stain on the wall.

Interesting read, and some loose ends throughout the book. Enough to keep me interested to try the second book in this series.

Amy Does it Again

I've read several of her books, and every time she delivers. I had given up on the more recent hauntings sub genre of horror books, having not found any good modern authors. Simmons is good though, and RL Stine, Jackson, Lovecraft, Stoker, Poe are gone. But now I got some wind back in my sails. Her style is perfect for my taste. Whether it's the 1689 series, Briar Wych, Nelson Street, etc.

Nice twist at the end. Very enjoyable listen

Twist at the end was great. Good narration and interesting storyline. Quick and easy listen.

Great

There are points that are slow at first but once it gets going I had to finish it ended up being the best spooky tale I have heard in a long time!! really well done and listened to the next in the series immediately!!
