At least one of the non-GR author's books does not belong to the GR author.

Looks like that author writes under two names and wishes to maintain two profiles.

Easy. He is a chartered accountant. The profile with CA on the end reflects this and was created by a robot when it added the CA author name as the second author to the sole book. Happens all the time. Stupid robots.

Her book Shadow of Colossus, http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28... is being renamed to Isle of Shadows, http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (it had already been combined)
Isle of Shadows is on both profiles. Should these books have both names be added then or left alone?

If it has been published with both names, then whichever it was published under first should be on all editions. Any published under the other name should also have that as secondary.

So since the GR author's info is on the site with the baptism book should I just delete that info and then move GR author S. Lane's book to her site?

Not sure what you're asking. The single book belonging to the GR author needed editing to go over to that profile. Which I have now done.

I suspect this may be due to the apostrophe (someone using a French keyboard).
