The covert art for Threat Come Close features a young Black man with a cast on his left arm seated in a metal folding chair reaching up to angle a heat lamp towards his upturned face. The lighting is dark, and he is cast partly in shadows. The title of the book Threat Come Close is in black all caps, and Coleman's name is listed in the bottom in white text.
