The Coveting

The Coveting is an epic novel about three Newark women and their secret obsessions.

A psychic woman, Alfrey Brown, rescues three little girls from a burning orphanage during the Newark Riots in 1967. Unable to adopt them, they are each taken into Foster care and reared separately in Newark, NJ.

As teenagers, the three young women are mysteriously reunited, ultimately becoming best friends.

Now that they have become successful women in their own right, they are secretly consumed with envious feelings towards one another. During a long overdue vacation, they devise a plan to challenge fate, and exchange lives.

Heaven Miller, a rich and famous actress who comes back home to Newark for a visit, Tasha Peters a successful businesswoman with a very special gift, and Sarah Farmer, a married mother with a loving husband and two beautiful children, are each longing for a new life.

Alfrey, who can see events before they happen, is determined to find and stop them before they make a tragic mistake which will alter the future and destroy their worlds. Her special bond that she shares with others like her, has kept the three women alive up until now, but time is running out.

The only way to save them is to uncover the truth about their unique gifts that they possess, but have always hidden.

For three beautiful, talented and successful women, the danger was not in their secrets, but in their longing.
