Cover Choices 2.0

I had so much fun with you last month discussing the cover of one of my books that I thought I'd bring along another of my books to see what you think about the covers. This time, there's a whole matching series for the books instead of just a single one. 

Just for a little background: This is my finished "Grime Fighter" series - contemporary mystery with clean romance and some suspense involved in each book. It has some humor as well and is set, for the most part, in the Dallas area. The main character is in witness protection, working for a local trauma cleaning service. The developing romance is with a crime scene specialist whose crime scenes she often cleans. 

The first covers for these books are more than ten years old, but I don't think they even matched the genre back then. I think these covers focused too much on the story and not enough on those who might be browsing for their next book. Do you agree?

This second set of covers are about four years old. I was advised that my books are firmly in the suspense genre, even though the mystery is the key to each book. Because they don't qualify as "cozy mysteries" the better genre for them is suspense. Usually suspense are darker in color, so these covers fit the bill for the time being. My favorite thing about them is that the spines make the skyline of Dallas when they all stand together on my bookshelf. That just makes me smile! :)

But I've been recently told that these covers no longer match the genre of Christian suspense. And in truth, the favorite books that I've been reading certainly have more color in them than these do. Some cover experts suggested that I try covers without the model and focus on the setting of the book. Since my setting is a big city - most of the time - I was a little concerned at what might be the best background. But I think the designs catch the suspenseful tone of the series. 

I'd love to know your opinion. Which book covers would intrigue you most if you're browsing for a Christian romantic suspense book on Amazon? Let's call the blue books A, the black books B, and the last multicolored books C. Comment below and tell me which you like and why. And even share what you don't like about them if you wish! I'd love to have your opinions!
