Local Author Talk and Fundraiser: Wayne Miller

  • The local author, Wayne Miller, was a Special Agent, Criminal Investigator, and Certified Fire Investigator for the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in Boston for 25 years. 
  • In the early 1980s, Boston was set ablaze with nightly multiple-alarm fires. Over a two-year period, 264 buildings were torched, intentionally set on fire, due to tax-cutting measures that caused layoffs of hundreds of police and firefighters.
  • Burn Boston Burn interweaves the activities of the arsonists with those of the investigators, the firefighters, and the citizens of the area.
