The cover showcases a dark and haunting forest bathed in deep blue and black hues of the autumn night sky. The full moon hangs prominently, casting an eerie glow on skeletal tree branches adorned with crimson autumn leaves falling gently. Paper lanterns float towards the moon, their warm light contrasting the cold surroundings, but one lantern flickers ominously, with thin red threads trailing from it. In the foreground, the shadow of a young girl wearing a black hoodie is seen, her windswept black hair cutting across the dim moonlight. She stands before a decrepit temple gate covered in glowing, cursed red carvings. A sharp dagger glints in her hand. Behind her, a blurry, foreboding figure looms, almost melding with the forest shadows. The temple gate is partially wrapped in dimly lit vines, creating an air of decay and secrecy.

The book title, "Autumn Whispers" is presented in an ornate serif font, cracked and weathered, with a glowing effect fading into shadows, giving the appearance of ancient stone inscriptions. The subtitle, "& Hidden Truths," appears below in a bold, slightly gothic sans serif font with a textured finish. The tagline, “Some mysteries should stay buried…” is in an italic, whispery calligraphic style, placed at the bottom. The author’s name, “Yashica Gahlawat,” appears in clean, minimalistic capitalized letters at the bottom right.

The dark temple gate dominates the center of the composition, with the girl standing just off-center to the left. The lanterns are scattered across the upper third of the cover, while shadowy branches and scattered autumn leaves frame the sides. The title is carved diagonally across the top portion of the temple stone, vines creeping over it naturally. The subtitle is placed just below the title in a slightly bold font. The tagline appears at the bottom center of the cover, and the author’s name aligns neatly in the bottom right corner to provide balance against the haunting visuals.
