About this book

Milo Rathkey is enjoying a quiet January at his Duluth mansion, Lakesong, when Charlie Dawson is killed while using an exercise bike. The bike has been rigged to electrocute him, and police investigate who was responsible for the fatal tampering. Milo, however, focuses on a different question: why Charlie died on a Tuesday. This mystery forms the central puzzle of the novel.
