The previous covers in the series had a clear formula with their use of a dramatic lawyer character, military imagery, and overlays of crosshairs/ instrument readings. This entry in the series seemed to have a story angle that involved more action than in previous entries, with the main character being pursued by mysterious characters in a dramatic scene in the book. I wanted to take all these elements and combine them to utilize the language of the book as well as the story to create a compelling and exciting cover.

The cover uses the style of the previous book covers and invigorates it with new energy and excitement. This approach was somewhat risky for the series but our team felt that the imagery was compelling enough that it warranted it.
