Start by adding some canvas around your image, and make sure your image isn't the background layer. Make a selection covering the spine of the case, you just have to get the fold accurate and let the selection go outside the image area:

The use either free transform or a combination of perspective and scale to transform the spine:

Deselect the selection and then transform the entire image, using skew.

You can do this with a script, but an action should work fine, if all the files are exactly the same, meaning the folds need to be in the same location. Just take one of you your files, start recording an action to transform it, and when you're doing, you can use Image Processor to apply it to a whole folder of images.
