Black Gold

A federal agent seeks justice for the Osage Indian murders in a western from "a master storyteller of frontier history" (Elmer Kelton, author of The Good Old Boys). The Osage Indians lost their ancestral freedom on a windswept reservation in Oklahoma. Now, in the Roaring Twenties, the land is spewing black gold; oil has been found, and every Osage owns a share of the rights. Soon Osage tribal members are being killed for their oil royalties while a corrupt sheriff turns his back on the murders, Special Agent Frank Gordon organizes and undercover operation while working openly with frontier legend US Marshall Will Proctor. Their investigation unearths a string of thirty-three murders, and as they race against death, Osages are still being killed. Gordon is determined to bring down the mastermind behind the ring of cold-blooded butchers. But when one of his own men is murdered and the killers turn on him, Gordon realizes there is a law beyond the law—the law of survival . . . "Matt Braun is one of the best!" ―Don Coldsmith, author of the Spanish Bit series "Matt Braun is a titanic credit to Western literature." —Robert L. Gale, Historian "He tells it straight—and he tells it well." ―Jory Sherman, author of Grass Kingdom
