The Cape Cod beach town of Falmouth seemed like a lovely place to visit. But those who lived there year-round knew its other, darker side... Local businessman and infamous bully Melvin Reine had started setting the homes of his so-called enemies on fire. Few of his victims--or even the police--ever dared to implicate him. Because those who did would pay the price... Mysterious events kept creeping up in Falmouth. The disappearance of Melvin's wife, a dead man found in a cranberry bog, a teenager slated to testify against Melvin who boarded a ferry, never to be seen again--was Melvin somehow responsible? Only one police officer, John Busby, had the guts to press him for answers. One day he found himself on the wrong end of a sawed-off shotgun...but managed to survive the attack. This is the shocking true story about what can happen to an all-American town WHEN EVIL RULES .

Wow! liberal zen "liberal artist" - political agenda
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
There is an agenda here but it happens to be on the part of liberal zen "liberal artist" who it appears from his/her review didn't like the story because of who wrote it rather than the content. God forbid LZ ever read Liberal Fascism by Goldberg. But that's another story all together. The book is short and well written. As far as I can tell it fits the facts available from the Cape Cod Times story of September 2005 and other news outlets. LZ's review appears to be an attempt at censorship through pear pressure, a tactic of wackos from all over the political spectrum who want others to believe(not think) as they do. I recommend the book to anyone interested in true crime and police corruption regardless of your feelings for the author.
