This three-book paperback collection brings together Killers of the Flower Moon, The Wager, and The Lost City of Z — meticulously researched tales of greed, survival and obsession. From an Oklahoma oil boom turned murder conspiracy, to a shipwrecked Royal Navy crew, to a doomed hunt for a lost Amazonian city, this set is essential reading for true crime and real-life adventure fans.. About the Books. Killers of the Flower Moon uncovers one of the most sinister crimes in American history: in the 1920s, members of the Osage Nation in Oklahoma became the wealthiest people per capita in the world after oil was discovered on their land — then, one by one, they began to be murdered. As the death toll rose, a young J. Edgar Hoover built the fledgling FBI around the case, uncovering a conspiracy of shocking depth.. The Wager tells the astonishing true story of HMS Wager, a British warship wrecked off Patagonia in 1741 during a secret mission in an imperial war with Spain. When two groups of survivors, months apart, washed up in South America telling wildly different tales of shipwreck, mutiny and murder, the Admiralty was forced to hold a court martial that could end in execution.. The Lost City of Z follows explorer Percy Fawcett, convinced the Amazon concealed a complex, lost civilisation he called "Z". In 1925 Fawcett vanished into the jungle with his son, inspiring nearly a century of expeditions as others tried to uncover his fate and the truth behind his theory. Together, these books showcase Grann's signature blend of meticulous research and storytelling.. Three acclaimed David Grann tru
