WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST FACT CRIME, SHORTLISTED FOR THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL FOR EXCELLENCE IN NON-FICTION, AND THE CWA ALCS GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION. NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE DIRECTED BY MARTIN SCORSESE, STARRING LEONARDO DICAPRIO AND ROBERT DE NIRO. This riveting true story delves into greed, serial murder, and racial injustice. Set in the 1920s, it recounts the tragic history of the Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma, who became some of the wealthiest people per capita after oil was discovered beneath their land. Their newfound wealth allowed them to live lavishly, but soon, members of the Osage began to be murdered. As the death toll rose, the FBI took on the case, but their investigation was poorly managed. In a bid to solve the mystery, J. Edgar Hoover enlisted former Texas Ranger Tom White, who, along with his undercover team and the Osage, worked to uncover one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history. With a razor-keen instinct for suspense, the author presents a gripping narrative that explores a dark chapter in the American West.
