A young man driving from Sydney to Adelaide for work decides to take a short detour into the desert. He turns his hatchback onto a notoriously dangerous track that bisects uninhabited stone-covered flats. Out there, under the baking sun, people can die within hours.

He's not far along the road when a distraught young woman stumbles from the scrub and flags him down. A journalist from Sydney, she has just escaped the clutches of an inexplicable, terrifying creature. Now this desert-dwelling creature has her jeep. Her axe. And her scent...

Fear is the Rider by Kenneth Cook delivers a gripping tale of survival and fear in the harsh and unforgiving landscape of the Australian desert.
