EARLY PRAISE FOR TRIPLE CROSS . . .
"There is plenty of action here, all set against the excite-ment and pageantry of the build-up to America’s greatest horse race. Neither race fans nor devo-tees of suspense will be disappointed." ~Booklist
“[In] Ehrman’s engaging fourth outing for barn manager Steve Cline . . . equine-minded readers will enjoy Ehrman’s capable, savvy young pro-tagonist and authentic depiction of the gritty world of horse racing." ~Publishers Weekly
"Just as a horse recognizes when sure hands gather the reins, from the first page of Triple Cross, I found myself on the bit and ready to go wherever Kit Ehrman led. Set in Louisville as Derby excitement builds ... the mystery unfolds with a clocker's precision while deftly capturing the city, the track, and its thoroughbred stars."
~Robbee Huseth, bookseller
