A Boy From Cape Cod

I have just finished reading the book "A BOY FROM CAPE COD" by Tim Burns. This true story shows God at work despite all the obstacles & shows no matter how far down we go, there is always hope. This book can be of great help to anyone who is presently in the same situation. It held my interest from beginning to end. It is also Great book for those suffering from any addiction. It shows how things can change for the better, no matter how many bad things happen. So many lives are in turmoil these days but there is always hope. This couple chose the right direction which gave them a new meaning in life. By going through these trials they are now able to help others. This book is a MUST READ!!!

This book kept me hooked from beginning to end. Well written and absolutely unbelievable yet based on real life events experienced by the author. The book tells an amazing story of a boy who breaks into the coveted music industry in LA and gets caught up in the LA drug culture. The details of the dredges of the LA drug culture are so scary and real with real world evidence to support the facts. After finishing the book, I was watching everyone for weeks! This book is meant for just about any reader that wants to read a great story of ultimate survival. Way to go Tim!

This is a highly entertaining read with a relevant message for our time. It's a true story of someone who grew up on Cape Cod, which was a bizarre enough section in itself, but ended up immersed in the seamy world of the LA music industry and then later the drug culture. Not your average conversion story and a real wake up call to anyone who might be interested in living the "sex drugs and rock n' roll" lifestyle. A story not for the faint of heart that spares no one, the author's life spins more and more out of control, reaching a final crescendo that is apocalyptic to say the least. This is a book that will leave a lasting impact on you and should appeal to anyone interested in the Hunter S. Thompson/William Burroughs genre.

This is an incredible story. You won't be able to put down the book until you are finished-so be prepared to stay up late! I still can't believe how a person can go through all that stuff, survive, be sane and married at the end. It's a great book.

Seldom do you run across a book which could so easily be turned into a feature film. Tim's Burn's book, "A Boy from Cape Cod, A Memoir" is such a book. It covers one man's remarkable story as a successful business person working his way up the cooperate ladder with MCA in LA, meeting up with an individual involved with Anna Nichol Smith, then tells all about the fast pace LA lifestyle of the Music industry working as an executive in MCA's Universal Music Group division. From the life of success and fast pace parties with Rock Stars to a plummet into the depths of darkness Tim Burns unabashedly tells how a life of drugs and alcohol brought him down to the lowest depths of the clandestine world of drug addicts, strippers, assorted creepy souls, and the occult. A Boy from Cape Cod description of the LA underworld is graphic and so is the author's description of drug addiction so much so that his story reads like a modern confessional. Mr. Burns encounters the occult world by having its dark forces unleashed against him and his wife. From here, Tim describes a spiritual awakening into the realties of the Christian message while escaping a terrifying plot that the dregs of society had planned for Tim and his wife's demise. It is here that his memoir would make an excellent feature film. Tim Burns describes his awakening to the Christianity and how this changed his and his wife's life, restored to the Holy Catholic Faith; truly, a remarkable story about an extraordinary journey overcoming the evil of a dark and secret world.
