Describe the issue

image

As you can see, author match has applied the same profile image and description to two different authors. Their books are different as well - Alex Ross (The Rest is Noise), Alex Rogers (The Deep).

Also, Alex Rogers' The Deep is attributed to Alex Ross (as you can see 2 books under his name), but this doesn't reflect in his profile page:

Here is Alex Ross' profile page image:
