Killers of the Flower Moon

"In the 1920s, members of the Osage Nation seemed fortunate: They were getting huge royalties on the oil that had been discovered under their lands. Then they started dying, one by one. This is easily my favorite book of the year. It reads – sadly – like crime fiction (if only it were fiction). Read this and you will learn something vital about our country’s history that reverberates to this day."

"I'm already anticipating David Grann's "Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI." The real-life story about the Osage murders in the 1920s has long fascinated me. It feels like one of those perfect marriages between subject and writer."
