In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, the Osage rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe.
Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. One of her relatives was shot. Another was poisoned. And it was just the beginning, as more and more Osage were dying under mysterious circumstances, and many of those who dared to investigate the killings were themselves murdered.
As the death toll rose, the newly created FBI took up the case, and the young director, J. Edgar Hoover, turned to a former Texas Ranger named Tom White to try to unravel the mystery. White put together an undercover team, including a Native American agent who infiltrated the region, and together with the Osage began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history.

The topic is really affecting. I knew l little about it from a high school history class, but iI found it so incomprehensible back then that I hardly believed it. After reading this, the part I find hard to believe is that those in power didn’t know exactly what they were setting up when they created the guardian system.

The three person narration format is awful, frankly terrible. I don’t think I’ve ever written such a review but truly, the format and the individual narrators make this a painful audio experience.
Great topic but narrator format ruins it

A necessary read

If nothing else the book helps document a horrible episode in American history while illuminating the tragic politicization of the FBI which has recently been renewed over the last several years.
Sad story of human cruelty.

I'm also surprised that the terrible abuses of the American Indians by whites are still being revealed to the public. I thought I knew American history.
Sad. What humans can do for money!
