Death Holds the Key

The image of the book cover for Death Holds the Key by Alexander Thorpe is a textured layout with the left hand side being the textured black outline of a man holding a book, a rosary with cross dangling from the same hand. On the right, against a slightly off white background is the outline of an image of a man in a hat, the texture over that image is made up of vines and leaves. At the bottom, over the top of the textured black there's an outline of a handgun, textured in the same way as the man in the hat. The title has a keyhole in place of the O in Holds, and is all in white, except for the KEY, which has the same texture again as the gun / hatted man.
