The Oldest Enemy
Cover Designer: My wife and I outlined the idea for the elements we wanted on the cover, and Light Edge (Nick) worked with Risen Books to produce this awesome result.
Comments about cover design
The Oldest Enemy is part supernatural thriller, part historical suspense, part murder mystery with lots of action, all spiced with a dash of romance. David Lighthouse is drawn into a murder mystery that turns out to be much more than he ever imagined. A reclusive billionaire, Eric Reinhardt, a former Nazi guard at Auschwitz who underwent a failed exorcism in Dresden at the close of WWII, has developed a demonically inspired plan to destroy Israel using wealth looted from Jews during the War. David uncovers the plot and races against time to stop it. The cover displays several key elements that tie the plot and various sub-plots together: the demonically possessed Reinhardt, the art and gold stolen and looted by the Nazi’s, and the involvement of Israel’s shadowy secret service, The Mossad, in preventing the destruction of the Jewish homeland by Islamic terrorists.

This is a very dark cover that’s obviously about evil and makes me want to read it.
