Camila Gray – The Secret Christmas Bookshop – Cressida McLaughlin

Camila Gray weaves wintry magic into the cover of this festive novel.

Camila's enchanting cover for The Secret Christmas Bookshop captures the cosy magic of a wintry seaside village.

Commissioned by HarperCollins, her illustration sets the perfect scene for this festive tale of romance and mystery, where snow-dusted rooftops and twinkling lights frame a story about unexpected connections.

The soft hues and delicate details draw readers into Sophie and Harry’s world, where a mysterious book sparks a journey that blurs the lines between fiction and reality. It’s a cover that feels as warm and inviting as the story within.

Paul Young

Paul Young (Artist Partners Ltd, illustrator)

 

As is the case now we are often asked by a certain amount of self publishing authors to commission a suitable artist to produce their own covers, and to  re-create their vision for them for the cover in this process.

We are delighted to share one such image -  the author:  Luigi Kohli  commissioned  and entrusted  our very own Paul Young, who is  well known for his historic paintings for both fictional  book covers and factual non fiction books to produce this stunning painting for the cover of the first of a proposed trilogy of books, continuing the story of the Novel Ben Hur by Lew Wallace. This book also includes some  beautiful internal black and white hand drawn and illustrated maps.

 

The first of the books has now been revealed - and can be pre ordered now from  Aletheia | Troubador Publishing
