    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
    This is a summary, and it does not accompany the official 
    'Killers of the Flower Moon' by David Grann uncovers a dark chapter in American history from the 1920s. At that time, the Osage Nation in Oklahoma was the world's wealthiest community per capita, thanks to the discovery of oil beneath their land. They lived in luxury, but their newfound prosperity attracted a sinister wave of violence. 
    Members of the Osage Nation, including Mollie Burkhart's family, began to be systematically murdered, with some shot and others poisoned. Investigations into these killings were met with deadly consequences, as those who dared to inquire were also murdered. 
    The newly established FBI stepped in to investigate, with the young director J. Edgar Hoover is assigning former Texas Ranger Tom White to crack the case. White assembled an undercover team, including a Native American agent, to infiltrate the region. Together with the Osage, they exposed a chilling conspiracy that is one of the most disturbing in American history. 'Killers of the Flower Moon' is a gripping true story of murder, intrigue, and the birth of the FBI in the face of a shocking conspiracy.
