Read Regarding Freemasonry: Everything You Wanted to Know About Masonic Conspiracies, Online
Authors: Bernard Schaffer
I remember my first night walking up to the lodge's front door. A man following me asked where I was headed. I pointed to the door. He nodded, clapped me on the back, and said, "You are going in the right direction."
Do you know a lot of people who are Masons?
Before I joined, I hardly knew of any. As I said, no one in my family was a Mason before me. One day I ran into a fellow police officer who was wearing a Masonic ring. I asked him if he was a Mason and I asked how hard it was to join. He gave me some of the information you see here, and before I knew it I was bathing in the blood of virgin sheep.
***
Just kidding.
Wanted to see if you were still paying attention.
About the Author
As a teenager, Bernard Schaffer starred in Nickelodeon’s “Don’t Just Sit There,” musical productions, television commercials, and a skit on Saturday Night Live. He left acting to pursue a career in law enforcement. Since 2000, Schaffer has worked as a patrolman, detective, and narcotics officer in the suburbs of Philadelphia.
In 2012, he released a series of books titled SUPERBIA about a dysfunctional police department. As a result, he was stripped of his detective rank.

Matt Posner, author of School of the Ages

5-Star Customer Review
"Schaffer's writing is top notch. He is funny, dark and tortured throughout. I was laughing at one page and then crying the next."
The Book Nook Club
A deadly shooting leaves police officer Frank O'Ryan with a shattered knee and a growing addiction to Percocet. Upon his return to duty, he is assigned to assist the most despised person in his police department, Detective Vic Ajax.
Together, the two officers will encounter everything from drug stashes hidden inside dirty baby diapers to geriatric child molesters. They will journey into a world of madness, crushing isolation, and unsung heroism from which so few return.
Superbia is the funniest, scariest, most brutal account of what police officers truly experience, written by the only author in the world who could take on such a task.
Best-selling author Bernard Schaffer does more than write books. He is a real life police officer. This is the book that ends some careers and begins legendary new ones.

"Superbia 2 is the knockout punch from the new heavyweight champion of police procedurals. With this book, Schaffer cements his place among the all-time greats and silences anyone who ever tried to stop him. In the face of oppression, he came back swinging and this book stands defiant. It is a true testament to his love of the police profession, those who (really) do the job, his hatred of those who don't, and his blistering talent at telling a damn good story. Welcome back, champ."
Cheryl G., reader review.
"The Postmodern Hamlet,"
reader review Amazon.com
"I did wonder if this book could equal the first one, Superbia. Well it did. It took me just 8 hours to read Bernard Schaffer's latest offering. I poured through it like a reader possessed,"
reader review, Amazon.com
"Bernard Schaffer must be my favourite author at the moment,"
reader review Amazon.com
"Just finished Superbia 2 and all I can say is 'WOW'. This storyline is getting better with each book,"
reader review Amazon.com.
After the publication of the first Superbia, Schaffer faced incredible resistance from his "other" profession, and instead of backing away from writing about what he knows best, vowed to come back swinging harder than ever. Superbia 2 continues the story of the men and women of his infamous unnamed suburban police department.
The end of the first book saw Detective Frank O'Ryan vowing to take revenge for his dead partner, Vic Ajax. Superbia 2 is a masterful journey into the heart and soul of one man, willing to do to whatever it takes to set things right...even if it means doing something terribly wrong.

"Take Firefly, add a little steampunk, and throw in some classic Western mythology such as the story of Wyatt Earp and the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, and you've got Seneca 6"
FringeScientist.com
"If you enjoyed Cowboys & Aliens, or Firefly you will most likely find this book to be right up your alley. It has been a long, long time since I have enjoyed a good Western read."
Reader Review Amazon.com
"In fact the story is full of little gems. They come as part of the Bernard Schaffer book package - he being a master of the `visual writing'. And in Jem Clayton, Marshal James McParlan and Doc Halladay you have three very engaging characters - the brilliant threesome. The defenders."
Reader Review Amazon.UK
"Outlaws, savages, aliens, and a town under martial law: This is not the Wild West as you know it, and author Bernard Schaffer wouldn't have it any other way...A cast of strong characters that are so distinguishable and well-crafted that you could almost label any of them as the "main" character."
HulegaardBooks.com
Guns of Seneca 6 is a trailblazing, gun-slinging, high-octane adventure of the Old West set on a distant planet in outer space. For years, the mining settlement of Seneca 6 was kept calm and peaceful by its steady-handed sheriff, Sam Clayton. That all ended on the day he was murdered in the wastelands, deep in the heart of Seneca’s native people, the Beothuk.
Twenty years later, an intergalactic Marshal crash lands on Seneca transporting one of the galaxy’s most ruthless, despicable criminals. It is only a matter of time before his brother, Little Willy Harpe, arrives to murder the Marshal and kill everyone and everything he finds inside Seneca 6.
Jem Clayton has turned into the infamous outlaw, “Gentleman Jim.” Upon his return to Seneca, he is joined by legendary scoundrel Doctor Royce Henry Halladay, and together, they make a stand against the Harpe Gang and a weapon they possess of unholy power.
Fans of “Firefly,” “Tombstone,” and “Star Trek,” get your guns ready. These are the Guns of Seneca 6.

WHITECHAPEL: THE FINAL STAND OF SHERLOCK HOLMES
$4.99 on Kindle, $12.99 in paperback, Free on Amazon Prime
"This duel between good and evil isn't about observational investigation skills but rather a story of redemption, heroes having to fight more than just a nocturnal psychopath, and a culture ill-equipped to deal with crime and its breeding grounds. Filled with surprising twists."
BookPleasures.com
"The writing is stupendous. Let me say that again, STUPENDOUS. Every character, from the most prominent to the lowest bit player, is deeper than an ocean. There are scenes in this book that I will never forget, including an ending that brought tears to my eyes."
DavidHulegaard.com
"Built on considerable historical research, a willingness to describe a hard world for what it was, and a good use of the original Sherlock Holmes canon to attract lovers of the Conan Doyle mythos. Disturbing, yes, but engaging as well."
Bookpleasures
"Mr. Schaffer's greatest feat with this book is in his extraordinary character development. Perhaps none more so than of notorious butcher, Jack the Ripper."
DavidHulegaard.com
"Author Bernard Schaffer hits it out of the park with a stylish, fictionalized story of the notorious killer Jack the Ripper with one of the ultimate investigators in fiction, Sherlock Holmes."
C.C. Cole
There have been many stories written about London's Great Detective and his pursuit of the world's first celebrated serial killer. All of them were lies.
Whitechapel: The Final Stand of Sherlock Holmes has been called both a masterpiece and a shocking outrage in its realistic depiction of the Ripper crimes and the world in which Arthur Conan Doyle's beloved characters existed. Bernard Schaffer cuts through the simplistic devices that readers have grown used to Sherlock Holmes stories, and instead of regurgitating the same tired reworkings of the canon, he creates something new. Something fresh. Something that will leave readers stunned.
Caution: Contains Graphic Content, including scenes of violence, sex, profanity, and realistic depictions of life in the East End where the Ripper killings actually occurred.
Readers looking to enjoy an edited version of the story are invited to purchase WHITECHAPEL: THE FINAL STAND OF SHERLOCK HOLMES (GENTLEMEN'S EDITION), available now for Kindle and paperback.

"You will peel through it, just to see if the next one can possibly be better than the last...it was flawless. 5 stars."
The Book Nook Club
"Schaffer pulls no punches with Women and Other Monsters. His imagination unapologetically consists of a balance of vast intellect and fearlessness when it comes to spinning yarns. He is going to tell you his story in his way and will make no concessions in reaching that goal...For the mere price of four quarters, this book belongs in the palm of any reader with a slightly askew take on reality. When one can see reality every day, it's the gems like this book that make diving into insanity that much more fun."

"Thank God for Schaffer"
