Unpublished Cover: The Cross Gardener



Another one that got away, and alas, will not see the light of Amazon, at least not in this guise. The Cross Gardener, by Jason F. Wright, interweaves themes of loss, grief, and healing as a young father struggles to deal with the sudden death of his beloved wife. Designer Annette Fiore-DeFex requested a bucolic image with a picket fence, some vegetation, and possibly a path. Above are two of the comps presented.
