When Evil Rules by Michele R Mcphee

A TOWN UNDER TEROR

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.

A CRIMINAL PROTECTED BY CROKED COPS

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.
