Murder in the Atchafalaya  (Jim Riley, 2019)

Imagery evoking the bayous of Louisiana.

​

Tomorrow and Yesterday  (Kris Francoeur, 2019)
Jim chose New Century Schoolbook as the typeface, in keeping with the author's request for an old English school building, along with a hand painting on a handwritten menu board.

Men of the Year  (Colleen McMillan, 2019)

​

A Kind of Family  (Bonnie Meekums, 2019)

Spirals, water and mountains were the three things specified in the cover design.  After some trial images, a photograph courtesy of the author's husband was used.

​

Wild, Dark Times  (Austin Case, 2019)

The author requested for Jim to produce the artwork after seeing the Shadow Girl cover.  Their concept was to combine the Mayan Calendar engraving with a rough graffiti face over the top, along with typography in the vein of the poster for the film Apocalypse Now.  An odd combination on paper perhaps, but it was effective.

​

The Nanny Song  (Misty Mount, 2017)

The brief was to combine a piano keyboard and sheet music, along with a red rose with a subtle hint of blood dripping from it.
