Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and map illustrated front and rear endpapers. "A masterful work of literary journalism crafted with the urgency of a mystery." - The Boston Globe. "Holy hell. If you like true crime - maybe even if you don't - you'd be hard-pressed to find a story as convincing as Killers of the Flower Moon." - GQ. "A marvel of detective-like research and narrative verve." - Financial Times. "Masterful.Filled with almost mythic characters from our past.It's a haunting tale of unimaginable betrayal, naked greed, and the birth of modern law enforcement." - Rolling Stone. "A meticulously researched and masterfully spun chronicle." - Entertainment Weekly. "Deeply intriguing.Powerful.Evocative. Its narrative is so prominent that many readers might forget they are learning about a dark, forgotten chapter in American history. That combination of readability and socially conscious journalism is what makes the book so valuable." - Columbia Journalism Review. ".a twisting, haunting true-life murder mystery about one of the most monstrous crimes in American history. In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, they rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. Her relatives were shot and poisoned. And it was just the beginning, as more and more members of the tribe began to die under suspicious circumstances. In this last remnat of the Wild West - where oilmen such as J.P. Getty made their fourtunes and where desperadoes such as AL Spencer, the "Phantom Terror," roamed - many of those who dared to investigate the killings were themselves murdered. As the death toll climbed to more than twenty-four, the relatively new FBI took over. It was one of the organization's first major homicide cases but the bureau badly bungled the investigation. In desperation, the young director, J. Edgar Hoover, turned to a former Texas Ranger named Tom White to unravel the mystery. White put together an undercover team, including an American Indian agent in the bureau. Together with the Osage they began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history. In Killers of the Flower Moon, David Grann revisits a shocking series of crimes in which dozens of people were murdered in cold blood. Based on years of research and startling new evidence, the book is a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction, as each step in the investigation reveals a series of sinister secrets and reversals. But more than that, it is a searing indictment of the callousness and prejudice toward American Indians that allowed the murderers to operate with impunity for so long. Killers of the Flower Moon is utterly compelling, but also emotionally devastating." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
