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

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.

Good story, strong female lead.
Format: Paperback
Always good to see a powerful story whose protagonist is strong but still human, with dimension and depth... and a woman. Not enough of that in our society, but at least it's here.

Pretty good but...
Format: Paperback
I think this is a VERY good comic book, but ... i don't know... i just do NOT agree with the 5 out of 5 positive reviews. I think: a)Too short. b)I didn't get attached to the characters. c)kind of...something missing. I just won't remember this one in a year ("Solanin" on the other hand) Lately i bought "Preacher" "Y: the last man" "Full metal alchemist" "Batman: the killing joke" "The dark knight returns" "Maus" "The Goon" "fell" "Desolation Jones" "I kill Giants" And ALL of these are MUCH more memorable and interesting than "Daisy Kutter" Though, AGAIN, i think if this was a longer series and had taken time to build a bond between me and the Daisy and other characters it would've been completely different. I like this universe of Daisy's.

Clever, Refreshing, Enchanting!
Overall Review: Ella Enchanted is one of my favorite fairy tale retellings of all time. It's a perfect fantasy: A `damsel in distress', a prince, an indifferent parent, fairies (including a fairy godmother!), man-eating ogres, future-telling gnomes, fun-loving giants, talented elves, an evil step-mother (of course!!), evil and greedy stepsisters... Put all those characters together and add some spur of the moment travels, finishing school, a few balls, and, above all, a curse, and you have a recipe for something unforgettable! The writing for this novel is accessible to any age. From young children to adults, everyone can find something to love. The characters are individuals with such sparkle! Ella's gift with languages is uncanny and so much fun as she converses with the different species she meets along her way to find the fairy Lucinda and, hopefully, break her curse! The stepsisters are not just nasty--they have personality, even if those personalities are cunning and evil...and a bit daft. There are wonderful moments of humor--as Ella tries to find new ways to thwart the commands she is given, but especially when a wig is stolen! The relationship between Ella and Prince Char is so sweet--from her desire to make him laugh, to the exchanging of letters while he is away in Ayortha, to their final encounter, it's enough to make you sigh with pleasure. Ella Enchanted is a timeless Gem! Overall rating is 5 out of 5 stars! Content Review: PROFANITY: NONE VIOLENCE: A few mild instances SEXUAL CONTENT: NONE MATURE THEMES: Mild RECOMMENDED AGE GROUP: 9+ There is no profanity or sexual content (there is a strain of romance throughout, and two characters kiss, but it is very sweet). The violence centers around the ogres, mostly. They eat living creatures. A horse is eaten. A character is caught by ogres and they talk about which parts they're going to eat (the character is not eaten). Ogres chase down a carriage so they can eat the people inside (again, they're not eaten). Ogres try to eat a human and a gnome. One character dies because of illness. A character always thinks of the worst things that could happen because of a curse (many of them involve death and sadness). Some characters are very cruel to another character (making them become a servant and forcing them to work extremely hard). A few of the themes are overcoming curses (obstacles/difficulties), loss of loved ones, and dealing with difficult people/life situations. I read this book aloud to my children and they loved every minute! Ella Enchanted is a Squeaky Clean Read for ages 9+!
