Synopsis

 Makedde Vanderwall is back - and trouble′s not far behind ...

Eighteen months after her ordeal at the hands of the sadistic ′Stiletto Killer′, Makedde Vanderwall must confront her demons when she returns to Sydney for the trial. But just as the verdict is handed down, the unthinkable happens - the killer makes a daring escape, aided and abetted by a twisted accomplice whom no one expected.

Mak is terrified. She decides to leave the country, but the press dogs her every move, hindering her safe passage and unknowingly helping the Stiletto Killer, who′s busy rekindling an old fetish - her.

Sharper than a Manolo six-inch heel, sexier than a Versace fashion show, and riskier than all seven deadly sins, COVET will set your pulse racing.

4 reviews for Covet

  1. New Woman Magazine Australia

    Tara Moss’s knack for combining the unglamorous world of modelling with forensic science makes this thriller impossible to put down.

  2. Fresh Magazine USA

    If you thought that Tara Moss’s first two novels, Fetish and Split were scary, then you better read Covet in daylight.

  3. The Age Australia

    Covet is a racy and entertaining thriller that contains a villain every bit as sinister as Hannibal Lecter.

  4. Crime Spree Magazine USA

    The word ‘spine-tingling’ has been used often before, but it perfectly describes COVET. Yet the book is much more than that – Tara Moss tells a helluva good story.
