Did anyone post this yet? Chadwick's latest cover looks like the dress from these:

It's got a different cover in the Uk, no lady. just a crown. Looks very wintery though!

I am so glad I have the UK edition. I agree, it does look like the same dress.

Yeah, that's the same dress. I think it looks nice in red or on the Chadwick cover.

We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!

I know we've seen the model before, but this book is new to my GR shelves.

The alignment of the author's first name and surname in that cover is driving me nuts.

This looks like the lady in red dress and pearls. BTW, this is an old 1991 Zebra and free at the moment.
