I saw the previews for the movie that was inspired by this book but I thought it might be violent and upsetting. I borrowed the book from the library and was surprised that the story was very different from what I had imagined. I think I might be ready to see the movie now.

This book tells the true story of a series of murders of First Nations people in order to take control of their oil rights.It confirms how ill-treated and disrespected the Osage tribe were. Solving these murders was the first case of the very newly-formed FBI under the direction of J. Edgar Hoover.
