Party planner Liv McKay has outdone herself this time. Shes put together an unforgettable Fourth of July celebration for the town of Dixie, Tennesseeincluding breathtaking fireworks and an exciting Miss Dixie Beauty Pageant. Maybe a little too exciting. As the party is winding down, Livs sense of triumph fizzles when the body of town councilman Bubba Rowland is discovered on the festival grounds. And now the prime suspect in his murder is Livs mothers fiancé, Earl, who had a flare-up recently with Bubba. To clear Earls name, Liv and her best friend Di burst into action to smoke out the real killer before another life is extinguished . . . “A small Southern town with charm as well as bodies provides a terrific backdrop for two appealing sleuths. Down home and delightful.” Carolyn Hart.
