Description
In Killers of the Flower Moon: Adapted for Young Adults, David Grann presents a gripping and meticulously researched narrative that delves into a dark chapter of American history. Set in the 1920s, this adaptation reveals the chilling true story of the Osage Nation in Oklahoma, who became the targets of a series of murders after oil was discovered beneath their land, sparking greed and betrayal.
The Story
The Osage people, once the wealthiest nation per capita in the world, find themselves ensnared in a web of conspiracy as they are systematically hunted for their fortune. Grann recounts the investigation led by the newly formed FBI, revealing not only the shocking crimes but also the deep-rooted racism and injustice that plagued the era. With vivid storytelling, he brings to life the resilience of the Osage and the fight for justice in a society that sought to silence them.
