25 years after she wrote it,
Bernadette Rule is publishing her first novel. It’s based on true
events that unfolded one hundred years ago, June 25, 1921. Dark
Fire details the lives, and finally the deaths by brutal murder
of eleven young people, the Drews & the Lawrences, who ranged in
age from 35 years to 3 months. They were her father’s first
cousins. No one was ever prosecuted for the massacre. With this book
Rule tries to give the victims back their lives in the only way she
can. www.bernadetterule.ca
