Friends in Freshly Dug Places — Jude Hardin

Welcome to the Pickin' & Grin Inn! Downhome cooking… Country music… Cabin rentals… And MURDER. Located just south of Nashville, the small town of Beechmont, Tennessee is party central when it comes to the Fourth of July. Events at a nearby public park draw crowds from all around, and this year the celebration is scheduled to last all weekend. There's a carnival and a classic car rally and live music on two different stages. Plenty of fun and deep fried food for everyone! Following a last minute cancelation, aspiring singer/songwriter Lindsay Camaro secures a slot on the entertainment roster, hoping that some label execs might be among the revelers. Everything's going great until she walks past the tennis courts and ends up chasing a stray ball into the woods, stumbling across a long-neglected family cemetery in the process. A very old graveyard with some very new graves. Lindsay reports her discovery to the police, thinking her involvement will end there. And it does. For a while. But then some things start happening. Some things that make her think she might be in extreme danger… Everyone's a suspect. Even the tall and handsome drifter who offers to help. Toss a baffled homicide detective and two dozen Elvis impersonators into the mix—along with rumors of a buried treasure worth millions—and it soon becomes clear that Lindsay is going to have to find the killer before the killer finds her.
