Front Cover

For this cover, the author wanted the mood of the book’s setting to come through—a foggy, rain-soaked river that carries a sense of mystery. I incorporated several key elements from the story: a bright, almost electric fishing fly, the subtle suggestion of a woman’s face emerging from the mist, and a lone fly fisherman with the elegant arc of his line. The goal was to blend atmosphere and symbolism in a way that hints at the storyline while still creating a strong visual hook on the shelf.
