High Design: Union Atlantic

I've been fascinated by this cover for a while. Finally saw it in the store yesterday - printed on uncoated stock with foil and emboss on the type. The novel pits a successful Boston banker against a retired history teacher who resists his building a mansion on property her grandfather donated to the town, while a high school senior with a crush on the banker has the power to upset their war game. The birds seem an interesting choice here.
