An Educated Death

by Kate Flora

Published 1 October 1997

In An Educated Death, the fourth Thea Kozak novel, Thea faces what may be her most tragic mystery yet, which begins when a young girl drowns at a private New England high school. The death rocks the quiet world of privileged academia, and Thea is called in to provide counseling for the students and faculty, and to work on a much needed evaluation of the school's safety procedures. When it is discovered that the girl was pregnant, Thea becomes suspicious of the circumstances of her death, and all hell breaks loose as she tries to uncover what really happened. As Thea digs deeper, the facade of gentility and old-world charm crumbles in the face of all those nasty little secrets that "perfect" people can't admit to.

Liberty or Death

by Kate Flora

Published 4 January 2003

Thea Kozak prides herself on her strength in the face of adversity. But in LIBERTY OR DEATH, the sixth Thea Kozak mystery, Thea will need every bit of that strength- and then some. Minutes away from finally marrying her long-time love, state tropper Andre Lemieux, Thea receives the horrible news of his capture by forces unknown. Andre was last seen near a small town in Maine that is a hot bed of conspiracy theorists and twitchy trigger fingers. Thea knows she shouldn't do anything. Let the professionals do their job. Her job is to wait...and to pray. But when the other half of your heart is threatened, safety and self-preservation-and even sanity-take a back seat.

Death in Paradise

by Kate Flora

Published 31 December 1998

Death in Paradise is the latest title in Kate Flora's sassy Thea Kozak series. On a holiday to attend an educational seminar in Hawaii, Thea is determined not only to make the conference a success but soak up some sun and get in some serious down time. What she hasn't bargained for is a dead body, none other than the conference chairwoman, strangled and done up like a very expensive call girl. As Thea tries to keep the conference from disintegrating into chaos, she discovers more motives for the woman's death than positive attributes about her life and more suspects than she can handle. Throw in some overly hostile local policemen, a suspicious husband -- and an old family friend who makes Thea's mother look like a saint -- and it looks like Thea isn't in for any kind of peace.
