My new book: front covers?

Swell will be published on or around 8th June and here's a sneaky preview of the first couple of ideas for the cover.
CoverIdea#1CoverIdea#2 I'm not sure about either of them so I would very much like to hear what you think.

. . . and here's some promotional blurb which describes a little of what the book is about.
"Relationships can be complicated, and none more so than the relationship between a son and a mother, particularly when she feels compelled by circumstance to take care of his every need herself.

She will do whatever it takes to protect him from the Outside, to keep him all to herself.

They live in the world but are never a part of it.  She teaches him to speak in a voice no-one else can hear.  She teaches him the art of hiding and plays games to test when something that seems fixed and inevitable becomes uncertain and unpreditable, sometimes with catastrophic consequences.
Our story begins on the morning of one of the hottest days on record.

It is eight in the morning and he already knows the chances are he will kill himself at some time during the day.

The truth about someone’s life can often be too difficult and too shocking to understand.  In Swell, only one thing is certain, by the time you reach the end you will know more than you did at the beginning."
