Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI
In the early 1920s, a series of brutal murders rocked the Osage Nation in Oklahoma. The victims were wealthy Osage Indians who had become millionaires after oil was discovered on their land. As the death toll rose, the Osage people began to suspect that someone was targeting them for their wealth.
In his bestselling book “Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI,” author David Grann delves into this dark chapter of American history. He uncovers a web of conspiracy, greed, and betrayal that led to the deaths of dozens of Osage men and women.
As the murders continued, the Osage people turned to the newly formed Federal Bureau of Investigation for help. This case would become one of the first major investigations for the fledgling agency, and it would ultimately lead to the unraveling of a vast criminal conspiracy.
“Killers of the Flower Moon” is a gripping true crime story that sheds light on a little-known chapter of American history. It is a reminder of the injustices that have been perpetrated against Native Americans, and a testament to the resilience of the Osage people in the face of tragedy.
