from ruining other families and to get his revenge, as well. Conventional

killers. The characters, misadventures and odd jobs will have the readers

Murder corporated
EVEN GOOD COPS CAN GO BAD...
Rookie cop Tommy Boyd learns the hard way that those that wear badges can be as ruthless as those they hunt when he is taken under the wing of Captain Ty Reeves, a self-proclaimed, "Destroyer Among Destroyers."
A THIN LINE BETWEEN HEROES AND MONSTERS...
Reeves is eager to teach his new rookie that the rules don't apply to his division; the coveted SIS: Special Investigation Section. The section of the Las Vegas Metro Police with the most arrests, the most convictions, and the most officer involved shootings in the history of the city.
A CHOICE IS ALL THAT'S LEFT...
Tommy sees that Reeves uses his badge with fearlessness and fury to destroy those he's deemed a threat. SIS is well protected and lucrative for those that play along. For those that don't, they're seen as no better than the criminals they chase.
When a woman that knows too much comes into Reeves' sights, Tommy must make the choice to protect her or Reeves and SIS.
Stuck in the middle between duty and the corruption and violence of SIS, Tommy must choose which side of the line he's on. But if he makes the wrong choice, he may not be around long enough to regret it.

1. The Ragtime kid
Mystery
Brun Campbell, a 15-year-old piano-playing fool, hears Scott
Joplin’s “Maple Leaf Rag” played one 1898 afternoon in Oklahoma City. It’s
destiny calling. Asking for ragtime lessons, he’s told, “No, Ragtime is colored
music.” So Brun runs away from the family farm to Sedalia, Missouri, to
persuade Joplin to take him on as a pupil. What Brun doesn’t expect is to trip
over the body of a young woman. He thoughtlessly picks up a couple of items
before he rushes away from the murder scene.
When Edward Fitzgerald, a man who befriended Brun his first night in town, is arrested for the woman’s murder, Brun is certain he’s innocent. But if the boy shows anyone the things he pocketed at the scene—things he now knows belonged to Scott Joplin—he’ll point the finger at the composer...and himself.
Brun decides to get Fitzgerald, Joplin, and himself off the hook by finding the real killer, but for that he eventually needs some help from Dr. Overstreet, the alcoholic town mayor; and John Stark, a man pushing sixty, who’s been employing Brun at his music store.
Sedalia is rife with suspects, some of them opportunists bent on stealing Joplin’s music. And then there are the girls and women—mysteries to Brun—like a teenager seized with religious fever, a couple of mischievous prostitutes, and an attractive, ambitious young woman with a hint of scarlet in her past, who further complicate his pursuit of the killer.

1.AT Risk
Mystery Thriller
This stirring first mystery is set in Maryland’s rich horse
country where Steve Cline seems, at twenty-one, much too young to be in charge
of a major stable. Seasoned by summers on a dude ranch, his skills and stamina
are sorely tested when he’s hijacked early one morning along with some of the
stable’s horses. His escape turns him into a killer’s target in an environment
where a complex scheme develops and everyone, no matter how innocent, courts
risks . . .
REVIEWS
“It's amazing what horses can do for a mystery. Kit Ehrman's debut novel, AT RISK . . . reeks of authenticity, and the hunters and jumpers have personality to burn. When seven of these horses are stolen in the dead of night, Stephen Cline, the 21-year-old barn manager . . . in the honored tradition of a Dick Francis hero, vows to track down the thieves . . .” ~ The New York Times
Both horse lovers and crime fans who've never stepped into a stirrup will relish Ehrman's riveting debut, set on a Maryland horse farm. When his successful surgeon father disowns him after he drops out of college, 21-year-old Stephen Cline takes a job as barn manager of Foxdale Farm, which specializes in the training and boarding of thoroughbred jumpers. In the middle of a late February night, Steve visits the stable to medicate a sick horse only to stumble on a horse theft in progress. Haunted by the events of that night after barely escaping from being kidnapped and murdered, Steve resolves to track down the perpetrators before they find him. In spite of the warnings of state police detective James Ralston, he continues his search to unravel what becomes a suspenseful mystery, but not before he puts himself in grave peril. The cold, wet Maryland spring vividly turns to summer amid the smells of horses, hay and sawdust as the plot gallops forward. As a former groom, veterinary assistant and barn manager, Ehrman treads Dick Francis territory with a sure foot. From Steve's girl-crazy friend, Marty, to the motherly farm manager, Mrs. Hill, to the ruthless villains who leave more than one body in their wake, she has created a memorable cast. The sensitively drawn relationship between Steve and the alluring Rachel, a boarder at Foxdale, is one of the novel's highlights. With his youthful zeal and perseverance, Steve Cline makes a captivating hero and sleuth, one readers will be eager to see again.
“At Risk by Kit Ehrman is suspense on steroids and one of the best debut novels to hit the crime literature racetrack since Dennis Lehane’s A Drink Before the War. Clear ample shelf space for a Steve Cline series because Ehrman, a real-life horse farmer, has hit for the literary trifecta.” ~ Andrew McAleer of Austin Layman’s Crimestalker Casebook
“Kit Ehrman’s AT RISK is for fans of Dick Francis and anyone who likes an edge of your seat, fun, page-turning whodunit.” ~Al Blanchard
