In this episode of Hidden Battles Radio, we sit down with Wayne Miller, retired ATF investigator and author of Burn Boston Burn. Wayne shares a powerful inside look at one of the most intense periods in Boston’s history—the devastating arson epidemic that tore through neighborhoods and left investigators racing against time to stop those responsible.

As part of the team working to uncover the truth behind hundreds of suspicious fires, Wayne discusses the relentless investigative work required to track down the individuals responsible. He explains the long hours, the pressure to protect communities, and the emotional toll it took on the investigators tasked with bringing the arsonists to justice.

But this conversation goes deeper than the cases themselves. Wayne opens up about the hidden battles investigators face—the stress of chasing dangerous criminals, the weight of seeing communities destroyed, and the lasting psychological impact of the work.

This episode highlights the resilience and dedication of those who work behind the scenes to keep the public safe, and the reality that the pursuit of justice can leave lasting scars.
