A dark palette dominates the cover, with a misty rendering of the Black Forest as the focal background. Silhouetted trees stretch upwards, their tops disappearing into swirling fog that seems to carry ominous tension. A faint golden light emerges from the depth of the forest, symbolizing the faint hope amidst despair. Above the trees, subtly faded, is the skyline of 1930s Berlin, marked by iconic landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate, juxtaposed with a looming shadow of Nazi banners that trail into smoky tendrils. In the midsection, a fragmented hourglass hovers, with faint gears and cogs faintly meshed in the background, representing Otto’s invention. The bottom has footprints trailing off into the forest, blending into the darkness.

The foggy forest mirrors the suspense and undercurrent of danger as Otto hides, while the Berlin skyline acts as an ominous reminder of context. The hourglass serves as a metaphor for time and Otto’s pivotal invention, while the fading footprints reinforce the themes of escape and survival. The typography combines vintage aesthetics and clean modernity to align with the literary fiction genre, further enhanced by the soft tactile matte finish. Spot gloss for the title ensures visibility and emphasis, creating a connection between the design and the poignant, suspense-filled story. Together, these elements create a cohesive and emotionally resonant cover.
