> Book cover for “A Date with Death,” no human figures, symbolic and atmospheric. The top half is a misty twilight sky in deep muted blue (#3C4A73) blending into soft lavender haze (#9B87B8), with wisps of pale lavender-gray mist (#DAD0E6) curling at the edges. The bottom half is cracked dark earth tones (#2A1E1E) with streaks of dried-blood red (#5C2525). In the center, a single red rose — upper petals in rich crimson (#B22222) glowing faintly coral red (#FF6F61), lower petals withered in muted maroon-brown (#5A1E1E) — floats downward. A silver scythe blade (#C0C0C0) arcs in from the upper corner, cutting the stem at a glowing golden point (#FFD580), with small dusty red-brown (#A52A2A) petal fragments drifting away. The title “A Date with Death” curves across the bottom in a mix of flowing watery charcoal (#4A4A4A) and rough weathered brick red (#802A2A), semi-transparent and bleeding slightly like wet ink.
