Cover Art for FATAL DESCENT!
I'm thrilled to present the cover art for Fatal Descent, the third book in my RM Outdoor Adventures series starring whitewater river ranger and guide Mandy Tanner. The book will be released in June, 2013, and features both climbing and whitewater rafting scenes. It takes place on the Colorado River in Utah in the Canyonlands area, with its red sandstone cliffs. I am so happy the Midnight Ink Art Department was able to fit both rapids and a climber on the cover. Please leave a comment here to let me know what you think of it!

Wow! Nice.
Yikes! I'm glad that's your character and not me! Fantastic cover, Beth. congratulations!
Love it. However, since my son is an avid climber, I find it a little scary.
Thanks, Sandra, Heidi and Sandy, for your comments. Yikes and Wow were just what we were hoping for! :)
High tension cover, Beth. I love it.
Wonderful cover!!!!!
Wow, so reflects the tone for adventure. Love the green. Really stands out. I'm with Heidi: glad it's your character and not me.
Great cover. Best wishes to you!

Thanks so much, Pat, Bob, Valerie, and Carmen! Valerie, adventure is the tone we wanted.
Great comment. Like so many have said, glad it's not me on that cliff! I did a little rock-climbing in the Sierra Nevada range, but nothing like that! I was trying to confront my fear of heights, but it just made it worse. This scares me -- and I suspect that's just the effect you were going for! Tense situation? Oh yeah.

Perfect cover for your title. Will she fall into the white water? Is there foul play? (I suspect yes . . .)
Thanks, Lori & Karen, for your comments, and oh yes, there will definitely be foul play. ;-)
