Book Cover Design Brief

We need to update a book cover for one of our titles which is being relaunched. The title will exist in both physical and e-formats.

The book is genre specific and era specific. World war 2, Greece. Out of the West is a compelling work of literary fiction, a war novel that explores the challenges of peace. A gripping historical adventure, it paints a portrait of courage and love in the fatal shadow of global conflict that has spilled into the twenty-first century.

Usage of the provided images is of course optional but it is a book about the German occupation of Greece. Images are public domain.

The cover needs to convey a sense of drama, typical for war novels.

Necessary information.

Title: Out of the West

Back cover text: Occupied Greece 1943. Out of the West is a compelling work of literary fiction, a war novel that also explores the challenges of peace. A gripping historical adventure, it paints a portrait of courage and love in the fatal shadow of global conflict that has spilled tragically into the twenty-first century.
Citizens of Nazi-occupied Greece face daily decisions that affect their freedom and their survival. When music teacher Petros intervenes in a dispute between a Greek woman and a German soldier, he and jazz singer Thea are plunged into the brutal world of armed resistance.
Ian Chalmers, a British agent, lands in Northern Greece, where he joins Petros’ and Thea’s network. Never fully understanding his Greek collaborators, he forms a deep bond with them.
In Scotland after World War Two, Ian is alienated from everyday life until he meets Clare, an up and coming intelligence officer. Surrounded by opportunity and courted by influential mentors, Ian and Clare learn that integrity has to be fought for in peacetime Britain just as in wartime Europe.
When Ian undertakes a final mission to Greece, now in the full throes of civil war, the weight of ideology and history descends with sudden force on the small town where former friends and enemies confront one another in a terrifying climax.

Please allow approximately 2cm height X 3 cm length for the bar code.
