"If you've picked up this book, you have the opportunity to do more than you ever thought was possible."

Gain step-by-step guidance for identifying the people, places, and pieces that you've been called to disrupt and shower with God's love.

In mid-December of 2014, this author received a call concerning an old friend who had been hospitalized. His name was Karl Learned. He was a retired Portland, Maine, police officer. When the author visited him, they chatted for over two hours. His friend made his journey back to the spirit world ten hours later. He left with the memory of this comment that he made: Bobby, we have a lifetime full of memories. Some of them we never want to forget. Some of them we wish that we could forget. This book contains some of the authors memories from 1967 to 1989 while he worked as a firefighter in Portland, Maine. Aptly nicknamed the generation that burned the city. These stories will raise chuckles, sadness, old memories, and perhaps resentment. These stories are about both the good side and the dark side of firefighting.

“The most bizarre set of tragic events ever to occur…” – Fairmont Times “Gritty… Fascinating.” – Robert Markowitz, New York Times essayist “Alone and bitter, [the killer] fabricated a horrible revenge—on the world and himself.” – The West Virginian “Charlotte Laws is a tsunami.” – Snatch Magazine Devil in the Basement reveals the shocking truth about my family. I learned about the murders, bombings, and devil worship when I visited my ancestors’ hometown of Fairmont, West Virginia. As a former private eye, I investigated what had happened and even ventured into the eerie basement where the satanic rituals had occurred. The story begins in 1928 when thousands of Ku Klux Klan members march through this sleepy town. My great uncle Jal’s passions were ignited that day, as were those of my grandfather Tucker, who changed his Italian name to “sound white” with hopes of escaping poverty and racism, and of becoming a U.S. Senator. Meanwhile, my great-grandmother set up a criminal enterprise in the back barn, and my great aunt was hauled off to an insane asylum before becoming the mistress of a Detroit mobster. But this story is not just about my family. It is also about their creepy neighbor Ernie, who had a ghoulish, life-sized doll. He abused his wives and dabbled in his favorite pastime: evil. He liked evil. He was creative when it came to evil. He was all about evil. Devil in the Basement is a story of love and horror, racism and hope, of Christian piety and satanic ritual. It is a book that shines a light on one of the most ghastly real life incidents in West Virginia history. It is a story you will never forget.
