About the Author

After discovering the works of Dick Francis, Kit Ehrman quit a lucrative government job and went to work in the horse industry as a groom, veterinary assistant, and barn manager at numerous horse facilities in Maryland and Pennsylvania. Twenty-five years later, Ehrman penned the award-winning, critically acclaimed Steve Cline mystery series where the horses and setting are as integral to the story as the mystery itself.

Editorial Reviews

"Hidden away from the glittering stage of thoroughbred racing, with its flashing silks and gleaming horseflesh, is a place they call ''the backside.'' In...DEAD MAN'S TOUCH...Ehrman refers to this behind-the-scenes area-where trainers, grooms, barn managers and stable hands minister around the clock to the needs of their high-strung charges-as ''a world unto itself.'' Ehrman strikes a solid claim to this gritty territory with another heels-up thriller that takes up where Dick Francis left off."
