The Thea Kozak series by Kate Flora began with Chosen for Death in 1994 and ran for 11 books through Death Sends a Message in 2021. Most of the titles follow a “Death” naming convention, including Death in a Funhouse Mirror (1995), Death at the Wheel (1996), and An Educated Death (1997).
After an early run of five books through 1998, the series returned with Liberty or Death in 2003 and continued at a slower pace. Later entries like Death Warmed Over (2017), Schooled in Death (2018), and Death Comes Knocking (2020) show Flora returning to the character over decades. The series offers a long-running mystery protagonist for readers who enjoy watching a character grow over time.
