Few places in the country were as chaotic as Osage County, where the unwritten codes of the West, the traditions that bound communities, had unraveled.

Introduction

In the early decades of the 20th century, the Osage tribe were the wealthiest people in America. They were also the most likely to be murdered.

The murder of two Osage people in May 1921 sparked a complex federal investigation into a series of slayings that exposed the violence at the heart of America's relationship to its native people.

David Grann is a bestselling author and journalist who specializes in writing true stories about historical mysteries.

Grann had never heard of the Osage murders before they were mentioned to him by a historian.

In Killers of the Flower Moon, Grann draws from research in federal archives and visits to Osage County in Oklahoma to piece together the true story of a chilling conspiracy rooted in racism, greed, and oil.
