After more than seven months, and in spite of some ongoing technical problems, I’m finally revealing the cover for the third novel in the Chet series. The book is titled Hidden in the Heart and it picks up where Strength Beyond Our Own left off.
Drum roll please …
As you can see, the cover artwork is a twilight scene and therefore tends toward a darker palette. When displayed on a computer monitor the cover looks great. Even in the darker shadows you can readily see the incredible detail that went into the artwork. Unfortunately, the darker areas of the print version looses much of the detail.
Having exhausted my knowledge of image manipulation, I’ve enlisted the help of a graphic expert whom I hope will be able to resolve the issue with the print edition. I know you’ve been anxiously awaiting this release and I’ve been working long hours to pull off a simultaneous, or at least a near simultaneous release of both the eBook and print versions.
Unfortunately, I’m starting to wonder if I’m going to be able to pull of the release as planned, or if the technical issues will force a delay of the print version. Either way, I hope you like the cover and look forward to your feedback.
Until next time …
