Penguin Student Awards 2020 Submission - The Night Manager

This post-Cold War novel details an undercover operation to bring down a major international arms dealer. The design of this cover mostly steers away from the cliché crime visuals, whilst keeping simple elements such as the fingerprints on the reverse side to ensure that it portrays the genre of the novel. By conveying the message and genre of the novel in a modest way ensures that the audience will understand the basics, but the storyline will not be given away at first glance.
