In the 1920s, a number of white men and women were attracted to Northern Oklahoma in pursuit of wealth. Osage land, which had been in tribal possession since the 1870s, was found to contain oil. Countless ways were devised to cheat Indians out of their money. One of these ways was murder.
The author, an FBI Agent in the 1950s, was tasked by FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover to review the files regarding these murders and complete the necessary investigation to bring the murderers to justice. The book contains over 50 photos and illustrations.
