    Murder‚ mystery‚ intrigue; these are the words of what you would normally find describing a game of clue‚ or a gripping‚ ghastly‚ ghostly tale found in old thriller movies where the climax is when you find out the butler killed him with a candlestick in the billiards room. The word “scandal” certainly couldn’t apply to our own home state when the closest we come to murder is in a board game or Hollywood setup; but this is where we visit the setting of Lake Superior in Duluth‚ Minnesota.
