That is actually a sound. It's used to indicate someone clearing their throat. Sometimes, an author will use it sarcastically, to point out that a character doesn't believe what was just said. Sometimes, it's used by an author to reflect that the character is coughing and is really struggling to speak. And sometimes, it's used to show the person wants someone's attention. "Ahem, excuse me, but you are totally wrong about this!"
