One Fete in the Grave is the third installment in the Liv and Di in Dixie Mystery series set in Dixie Tennessee and featuring Liv McKay and Di Souther. Liv runs a party planning business Liv 4 Fun, best friend Di is a mail carrier, and both have a knack for solving crimes.

Liv has been hired by the town council to organize the annual Fourth of July celebration. Competition amongst the bakers was fierce, rumors were swirling that the judges were bought off during the Ms. Dixie Beauty Pageant, and the firework show was spectacular. Overall a successful job for Liv until the body of councilman Bubba Rowland is found shot in the head with his pants down in a port a potty.

It's seems plenty of people had it in for Councilman Rowland. When someone close to Liv is named as the prime suspect, she and Di set out to find a killer. Their investigation uncovers a shady investment scheme and hints of adultery, things in Dixie aren't as innocent as they seem.

A fast paced storyline with well developed characters both new and returning. Strong family dynamics and friendships draw you in from the first page. A big wedding is coming up and the bride's outrageous demands will have you laughing out loud. Definitely a series not to be missed.
