Book

Cover-

The cover is quite simplistic and fits in with the Mystery genre. The only thing I would suggest would be to change the placement of the Author's name. I would perhaps place it towards the bottom of the book.

I don't have much knowledge of design or typography, but I would use a different font that could entice and capture the readers' attention.

Blurb-

I don't find anything wrong with your blurb. Great job!

Grammar-

(Chapter One)

Just be careful with tenses. You switch tenses in this sentence.

Your example...

"I wished I hadn't worn my favourite hoodie, it's orange, and I'm sure those things could spot me from a mile away."

You are writing in the past tense, but with "it's," and "I'm," these are common in the present tenses.

A suggestion would be...

"I wished I hadn't worn my favourite hoodie because it was orange. I was sure those things would spot me from a mile away."

✿

Here is another example.

Your example...

"I tried my best to whack them away with my arms and ignore the stinging pricks."

I would change "ignore" to "ignored."

✿

Some of your sentences are a little awkward. This is fixed by rewording your sentences and changing the structuring.

Your example...

"The inhumanly grunts and growls from farther back behind me did not diminish."

You tend to repeat some words in the same sentence that have the same meaning. "...farther back behind me..."

A suggestion would be...

"The inhuman grunts and growls from behind me didn't diminish."

I would be more specific with what you're trying to say.

✿

I would advise reading over the chapter before you publish because there are a lot of small typos.

Here are a few examples...

"...I tried my hardest not to breath."

"This was the end, I knew I'd be rent to shreds."

Suggestions would be...

"...I tried my hardest not to breathe."
