One Book One Broomfield Title Announcement
The Broomfield Library is thrilled to present this year's One Book One Broomfield selection: "The Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI" by David Grann. "Killers of the Flower Moon" recounts the sinister murders of Osage Nation members and the racial injustices they faced in American History. Grann not only compellingly revisits research from the original investigations, but also presents new evidence in a triumph of true crime. Read the book this summer in preparation for the author talk on Nov. 2 at the Broomfield Auditorium.
