Book Synopsis



EL LIBRO QUE HA INSPIRADO LA ADAPTACIÓN DIRIGIDA POR MARTIN SCORCESE

BEST-SELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES FINALISTA DEL NATIONAL BOOK AWARD

"Desconcertante y cautivadora [...] una historia que abrasará tu alma". --Dave Eggers, New York Times Book Review

MEJOR LIBRO DEL SHELF AWARENESS DE 2017

Elogiado como mejor libro del año por Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, GQ, Time, Newsday, Entertainment Weekly, Time Magazine, NPR's Maureen Corrigan, NPR's "On Point", Vogue, Smithsonian, Cosmopolitan, Seattle Times, Bloomberg, Lit Hub's "Ultimate Best Books," Library Journal, Paste, Kirkus, Slate.com and Book Browse.

A principios de la década de 1920 los miembros de la nación indígena de los Osage, en Oklahoma, se convirtieron en las personas más ricas del mundo. Tras descubrirse enormes depósitos de petróleo bajo su reserva, los Osage vivían en mansiones, vestían con pieles y joyas costosas, viajaban en automóviles con chofer y tenían sirvientes blancos.

Pero pronto, los Osage comenzaron a desaparecer misteriosamente o a morir asesinados, uno tras otro. La familia de una mujer Osage, Mollie Burkhart, se convirtió en un objetivo principal. Sus tres hermanas fueron asesinadas. Una fue envenenada, otra murió a tiros y la tercera falleció en una explosión. Otros miembros de la nación Osage morían en circunstancias misteriosas, y muchos de los que se atrevieron a investigar los crímenes fueron también asesinados.

A medida que aumentaba el número de muertes, el recién creado FBI se hizo cargo del caso, y su joven director, J. Edgar Hoover, recurrió a miembro de los Texas Rangers llamado Tom White para tratar de descifrar el misterio. White armó un equipo clandestino, que incluía a un agente nativo-americano que se infiltró en la región, y junto con los Osage, comenzó a revelar una de las conspiraciones más escalofriantes en la historia de los Estados Unidos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE BOOK THAT INSPIRED THE ADAPTED FILM, DIRECTED BY MARTIN SCORSESE

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST

From the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Lost City of Z, a twisting, haunting true-life murder mystery about one of the most monstrous crimes in American history.

A New York Times Notable Book

Named a best book of the year by Amazon, Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, GQ, Time, Newsday, Entertainment Weekly, Time Magazine, NPR, Vogue, Smithsonian, Cosmopolitan, Seattle Times, Bloomberg, Lit Hub, and Slate.

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 it 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.
