Hardback “Killers of the Flower Moon” by D. Grann
The Osage Murders and the Beginning of the FBI.
Praise for Killers of the Flower Moon
"Disturbing and riveting... Grann has proved himself a master of spinning delicious, many-layered mysteries that also happen to be true... [When] the mastermind be hind the murders is revealed, you will not see it coming. You will feel that familiar thrill at having been successfully misdirected, but then there are seventy pages left in the book. And in these last pages, Grann takes what was already a fascinating and disciplined recording of a forgotten chapter in American history, and with the help of contemporary Osage tribe members, he illuminates a sickening conspiracy that goes far deeper than those four years of horror. It will sear your soul... Shattering."
-DAVE EGGERS, The New York Times Book Revire
"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
