The cover features a grey sniper scope view at the center, creating the bullseye effect, with intricate details of crosshairs. In the crosshairs is a narrow alleyway scene, showing a subtly blurred figure representing John F. Kennedy. Around the edges of the scope, faint images of a concentration camp, chaotic holiday decor, and dark shadows symbolizing a schizophrenic reality blend into the dark grey background, giving a haunting, unsettling feel.
The book title "Dallas —> Zürich one way" is in a bold sans-serif font, exuding modernity and tension. The author names, "Peter D. Kiechl und Korbinian C. Heeger," use a slightly distressed typewriter style, emphasizing a gritty atmosphere.
The sniper scope is placed centrally with the book title at the top and author names at the bottom. The thematic visual elements are distributed around the scope's silhouette.
The visual composition aims to evoke tension and intrigue by centering on the sniper scope's bullseye, which directly connects with the book's dark, suspenseful theme. Typography choices emphasize the modern thriller vibe with a bold sans-serif font for the title, maintaining high visibility while complementing the disturbed tone with a distressed font for the authors. The overall layout frames the main narrative symbol—John F. Kennedy—while providing a chaotic backdrop of interwoven dark themes. The use of matte-textured paper enhances the cover's dark aesthetic, making it tactile while reflecting the book's sinister content through subdued light interaction.
