I'm working on the book description that goes (rough draft) something like this: <i>Marshal Cash Laramie arrives in the explosive town of Bear Pines where Mrs. Tolliver is running as the first female mayor. The incumbent mayor has powerful allies and attempts to harass her in quitting the race. Events ultimately turn lethal and Tolliver's husband is killed, leaving her and their son Danny on their own. <br /><br />Cash rapidly finds himself with his hands full and surrounded by killers who will stop at nothing to make sure Mrs. Tolliver is not elected. He wires Cheyenne for assistance but will help arrive in time?</i>David Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749857752139212888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-75880722977758318092012-02-25T11:31:56.730-05:002012-02-25T11:31:56.730-05:00Bullets For a Ballot?

Seems to blend into the background as it's such a soft color. Perhaps that was the intention, to avoid standing out from the image, but it loses impact. <br /><br />The other title (vol I&II, Manhunters, Miles) All have a strong light to dark contract in title vs. background.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-66349679907508714322012-02-24T17:37:06.034-05:002012-02-24T17:37:06.034-05:00Sabrina, Thank you.
