PAWHUSKA, OKLAHOMA - OSAGE RESERVATION 1922 - Someone is murdering the Osage for their money. As the only tribe in America with mineral rights, the Osage Nation town of Pawhuska is among the richest communities in the country. The government has forced the natives to rely upon conservators to manage their wealth, but banks and others have been stealing and cheating the Indians out of the proceeds from the vast oil income that lies beneath their reservation. Federal Agent Jacob Scott, along with US Marshal James Clark and their friends Emma Larson and Jefferson Rose, investigate the brutal murders of two wealthy Osage families and embark upon a manhunt for one of the most violent killers to emerge from Oklahoma since the days of Jesse James. "Cornell's characters are full of intrigue and mystery, keeping the reader engrossed in the story from start to finish." - Elizabeth Wehman, Author of The Year the Stars Fell.
