I'm glad I watched the movie first and that Scorsese focused on the Burkhart situation more than the origins of the police. the cop stuff dragged so bad for me, it's a shame the last part is so much more interesting!!!

A non-fiction book that moves with the urgency of a murder-mystery, this account of a forgotten injustice will boil your blood, especially since the crimes were saturated with racism against the Osage First Nations.

I think Grann did an excellent job setting up this book as a mystery from the point of view of the main Osage family it covered and the tragedies that followed them. If you lack knowledge in the subject (like me), you are left in suspense the entire time. The horrors of this book can't be overstated and I suspected a couple people, but not the entire plot. I also enjoyed Grann's wrap up in the end during modern day.
