Book Cover Design Brief

I need a cover for my new murder mystery novel. This will be the third in the 'Claire Hardcastle' series. The heroine is a 26 year old brunette with shoulder length hair who is a commercial pilot specialising in light aircraft aviation ie small planes (no Jets!)
I have attached the covers for the two previous books in the series so that this one matches the style. Note that a representation of Claire's face is on the first book in the series - if you use a woman's face it your design it will have to match.

The novel is set in the hilly hinterland of North Island New Zealand.
Key scenes are:
1) A sheep muster. Horses, sheep, men, Huntaway dogs.
2) A major landslide that blocks and dams a river. One of the characters is buried in the rubble.
3) A scene at night of a flooded river that has broken it's banks (the dam above has now burst) and threatens to wash a couple of cars off the road
4) An up market Hunting Lodge set in a green valley with a back drop of hills covered in New Zealand bush.
5) A Eurocopter helicopter flying over any of the scenes above. (Not piloted by the heroine)

Target Market(s)

Adult readers, 18 - 45 years

Requirements

Must have

• My project must be visually compatible with the other two books in the series. New Zealand scenery is unique - be careful of the backgrounds you use.

Nice to have

• Open to the designer's creativity

Should not have

• The heroine, Claire is a young, competent working woman. She flies small aircraft teaching students to fly, and carries passengers into small airstrips in rugged country. She is young and attractive, but please no soft porn type images of sexualised women with big tits.
