Our approach
A young woman with pale hair lies among green leaves and clusters of purple berries, her face turned towards the reader, with a single white feather resting on her hair. The soft, painterly rendering gives the cover a quiet, slightly eerie beauty.
The title is set in an elegant, high-contrast serif with decorative swashes, curving over the lower part of the image, with the author name small at the top.
