Neil Turner asked Neil Turner:

Who designs your book covers and how do you decide what to put on them?

Neil Turner As with most things to do with a published novel, covers are a team effort. For the first novel, A House on Liberty Street, I engaged the services of David Prendergast, who is an excellent cover designer based in Dublin. We established the look of the series in terms of layout and fonts, a concept that I’ve used with every novel in the series. The graphics for each novel are selected to dramatize a pivotal moment of tension in the story. I occasionally fantasize about having the graphic arts chops to do the covers myself, but, hey, who am I kidding? Stick men brandishing stick guns might not sell very well outside of the cartoon aisle.
