While on holiday to attend an educational seminar in Hawaii, Thea Kozak is determined not only to make the conference a success but also to take some time to relax and enjoy some peace. What she hasn’t bargained for is a dead body, none other than the conference chairwoman, strangled and done up like and expensive call girl. As Thea struggles to keep the conference from turning into chaos, she discovers more motives for the woman’s death than positive aspects of 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.
Liberty or Death
Thea Kozak is a woman who has prided herself on always being the strong one in a crisis. While she’s usually not the one that starts the process, she seems to always be the one to clean up the messes and she’s had practice at it. She survived her husband’s death and her sister’s brutal murder and not only came through with her mind and heart intact, but has used that pain to help others. Thea is a tough yet tender minded woman who through twists of fate, some spectacular bits of bad timing, and her refusal to walk away from someone in trouble has had her share of dead bodies and heartache cross her path. Liberty or Death is the sixth Thea Kozak mystery. Thea is as strong as ever, and she will need every bit of that strength. This trouble is not of Thea’s own choosing…
and it threatens everything she values. Thea is minutes away from finally marrying her long time love Andre Lemieux the state trooper who helped her discover the truth about her sister’s death, and the one person Thea can rely on to be strong for her. But Thea is left standing at the altar, and brought horrible news of Andre’s capture by forces unknown. The last place he was seen was near a small town in Maine that is a hotbed of right wing conspiracy theorists…
and lots of people with twitchy trigger fingers. Thea knows she shouldn’t get involved. Let the professionals do their job. Her job, for once, is to wait…
and to pray. But that doesn’t sit too well with a woman who has taken pride in being in control of much of her life and who has triumphed over adversities that would make a battle weary veteran sag. And when the other half of your heart is threatened, safety and self preservation and maybe even sanity take a backseat.
