First book cover mockup

I've used an enhanced image of melting snow to obtain the kind of background you outlined in the brief. The author's name is very prominent and I think the cover as a whole achieves the thriller feel. Please let me know if you have any changes. In the meantime I will work on the cover for the second book.

    Ok- we really like the color of the background here - but would like you to utilze the SPLIT SECOND ice/snowflake that you used - in blue-not red....Great job.

    Very good start.Yes, a bit more abstract The name cn stand out- not an issue. The color of the author's name needs to "pop". It's a bit muted now. For author's name try Market Deco. Remember - we're branding so we want the books to have the same look - meaning, name, title in the same places from book to book.

    Further thoughts: If the background does not fit with the actual story I can make it more abstract so you can just see shades of blue and white. I can also tone down the title on the front cover to a dark grey so that it is more muted and does not stand out more than the author's name.
