  When Bruce Claremont quit his job working on a thoroughbred breeding farm and vanished, his sister Corey asks barn manager Steve Cline for help. So Steve slips into Bruce’s world, and the more he learns, the more he suspects that Corey may never see her brother again. Because all is not as it seems in this pastoral setting where secrets and jealousies and obsessions are the norm, and the present seems to be repeating its fiery past. If Steve’s not very careful, he just might get burned . . .  
  From Publisher's Weekly: Ehrman's knowledge and exposition of life on a horse farm is most impressive and enjoyable.  
  From Booklist: Ehrman skillfully ratchets up the suspense en route to a surprising conclusion that nonetheless makes perfect sense. That is to say she fully engages the reader, then leaves him or her satisfied. What more could you ask of a mystery? 
  From The Daily Oakland Press: “COLD BURN is a terrific, engaging novel full of bits of horse breeding arcana, and a more complex and realistic view of life and death - and birth - than can usually be found in the standard mystery novel.”

  After a bad day at work, accountant Dave Smith has one too many at the bar. A seemingly normal traffic stop later that evening rips him away from his wife and kids and into servitude. He has been drafted into Megacorp Greenrock Solutions’ newest business venture. A core of mercenaries established to provide a service for the purpose of killing for profit. 
  These aren’t just any mercenaries. Greenrock built a lab to genetically enhance their assassins, giving them super-human strength and increased capacity for violence. Unknown to their captors, the enhancements also give them the ability to join their minds together into a collective. 
  Greenrock’s deeds have attracted the attention of law enforcement, however. There are a group of detectives putting the pieces together and closing in on Greenrock. 
  Dave and his band of enhanced conscripts are also using their shared mind to work out ways to free themselves. 
  The lab’s directors will use any means to protect their investments. In many ways they are more vile than the assassins they produce. 
  Is this a fight anyone can win?
