Judging Books By Their Covers: Thunder on the Right


I've been re-reading bits of Thunder on the Right by Mary Stewart before bed the last few evenings. It's a gothic mystery, starring 22 year old Jennifer Silver, set in 1950s France. Jennifer's cousin Gillian supposedly died in a mysterious convent... but Jenny is quite sure that Gilly can't be dead. I know, it breaks my normal no-fiction-before-bed rule, but with a re-read I'm not as strict! 

I own the cover at left, which is super cheesy, but actually kind of accurate for the story. I think my favorite cover is the second from the right.

Which cover do you prefer?
