Résumé

In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world could be found in Osage County, Oklahoma. The reason ? Oil. After oil was discovered beneath their land, the Osage Indians had untold wealth. Then, one by one, they were killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target, her relatives shot or poisoned. And, as the death toll climbed, the FBI took up the case and with the Osage began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history.
Based on years of research and startling new evidence, this masterpiece of narrative non-fiction details an investigation full of sinister secrets and reversals. Killers of the Flower Moon is an utterly compelling - and emotionally devastating - story of greed, betrayal and injustice that still resonates today.
