A cinematic book cover illustration depicting a chilling scene in a dense, dark forest during a stormy night. A single mound of freshly dug earth dominates the foreground, with a weathered, antique shovel stuck upright in the soil, its worn wooden handle glinting faintly in the pale moonlight, and a solitary black crow perched ominously upon the handle with its glossy feathers ruffled by the wind. Towering oak and pine trees with gnarled, skeletal branches stretch into the misty background, their twisted forms partially obscured by heavy, swirling storm clouds that are intermittently illuminated by ghostly flashes of silver moonlight. The title "Buried Secrets" appears in elegant, weathered serif typography at the top of the cover, while cool atmospheric lighting casts long, dramatic shadows across the scene, emphasizing the isolation and foreboding mood.
