A compelling book to read is Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann. The author brings characters from the pages of history, so readers see them as real people. This is a gripping story of the brutal crimes in Osage Country in Oklahoma by men who wanted the Osage Native American’s money from the oil revenue and the investigation by Federal Agents that helped to solve some of the crimes. This story is also portrayed in a movie of the same name starring Lily Gladstone as Mollie Burkhart, Leonardo Di Caprio, Ernest Burkhart, and Robert De Niro as William Hale.
