Battle won, novel acquired, we set to finding a cover design that could evoke the effortless glamour of Tigers in Red Weather but also an element of unease, some discomfort in the pressing heat of a Martha’s Vineyard summer.
We know you can’t read it yet (which must be infuriating!), but here’s what Lee Dibble, Picador’s Senior Marketing Manager had to say:
‘Reading Tigers in Red Weather was sheer unalloyed pleasure, being pulled into Tiger House was the most thrilling reading experience I’ve had for some time. I absolutely loved how Liza exposed the bubbling man-o-war inside the outwardly picture-perfect Derringers.’
…and that’s the thing about this glorious novel, the Derringers’ life does seem pristine. It is not. Its pulse isn’t so much to the skip of jazz or the chink of ice in a frosted glass; there is something more sinister at work, and in the searing July of 1959 it becomes impossible to ignore. . .
