Image of the book cover for No One Will Know by Rose Carlyle. The background image is a peaceful harbour with a couple of sail boats floating on the water. There is a small spit of land at the bottom left with a young woman standing on it. She's in shadow and the overall image is dusky pink. There are mountains in the background, and a tree overhanging. The title is down the image with the subtitle in the form: They're the perfect couple NO ONE They have the perfect plan WILL All they need is the perfect victim KNOW A Novel
Image of the book cover for Butter by Asako Yuzuki. The image is a yellow background with a black and white cow pointing, head first, down the middle of the image. The title of the book is in large read letters down the left hand side of the image and there are a couple of red swipes (blood? fingerprints?) on the bottom right.
