Join author and previous Special Agent, Criminal Investigator and Certified Fire Investigator, Wayne M. Miller, to discuss his book, "Burn Boston Burn-The Largest Arson Case in the History of the Country." It is an astounding true crime narration.


A conspiracy of 9 men, including 3 Boston cops and a Boston firefighter, burned Boston and surrounding communities in the early 1980’s due to tax-cutting measures that caused layoffs of hundreds of police and firefighters. Over 2 years, these fire buffs, turned arsonists, torched 264 buildings, causing millions of dollars in damages and hundreds of injuries. 


The city was ablaze with nightly fires, sirens wailing through the streets and people too afraid to sleep. This book interweaves the activities of the arsonists with those of the investigators, the firefighters and the citizens of the area. Readers will shake their heads in disbelief at the brazen and wanton actions of these political terrorists.


Books will be sold and signed by the author after the talk.
