City of Shadows

Premade Book Cover – “City of Shadows”

Artwork & Mood

This striking and suspense-driven premade book cover evokes secrecy, danger, and urban mystery. The central figure is a hooded silhouette facing forward, their face completely obscured, creating an immediate sense of anonymity and threat. Within the figure’s torso, a modern city skyline emerges, blending the human form with towering buildings—symbolizing hidden lives, corruption, or secrets buried within the city itself. The color palette is dominated by moody greens, teals, and shadowy blacks, with floating particles that add grit and tension, reinforcing the noir-like, suspenseful atmosphere.
