Death in Paradise (A Thea Kozak mystery) - Softcover

"Thea Kozak is a terrific, in-you face, stand-up gal....Stephanie Plum and Thea Kozak have a lot to say to each other."--Janet Evanovich "Kate flora does what all great writers do; she takes you inside unfamiliar territory and makes you feel right at home."--Michael Connelly, " New York Times "bestselling author of Blood Work "If a sleep-losing page-turning is your thing, keep an eye on Thea. She's one of the good guys."--Richard Barre, Shamus Award-winning author of "The Innocents and Bearing Secrets"

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.
