The Midnight Society Book Club LIVE SHOW DISCUSSION of Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann

Welcome to he Midnight Society Book Club's live discussion of The Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann!

I am joined by my IRL bestie, Saundra! You may remember her from the book club last year when she co-hosted with Nakia from @nakiashideaway for the live show book discussion of John Marrs' The Marriage Act.

This book choice is a little different from my usual picks, mainly because it is a true crime story, and hence nonfiction. So THIS discussion will not have a spoiler section. All of the information in this story is American History, and I see no reason to avoid talking about the grave injustices that were done to The Osage people.

Thank you to all of you who have joined in the last year and read along!

The Killers of the Flower Moon- BOOK DESCRIPTION:
• Nonfiction • History • True Crime • Mystery •

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 this 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.
