Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter by Tom Franklin

5.0

One of the best books I've read in a long time! Awesome first sentence, awesome first chapter, and I stayed hooked from there. Basically it is about a missing teenage girl, the man suspected of taking her (due to a similar accusation 25 years ago), and the cop investigating her disappearance. It is set in small town Mississippi in the modern day, but had plenty of flashbacks to the 1970s, when the original disappearance happened. Lots of excellent small town color.
