Book: Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter Author: Tom Franklin In 1979, Larry Ott took a girl on a date to the drive-in, and she was never seen again. Despite the fact that no evidence connecting Larry to the disappearancewhich was quickly assumed to be a murderwas ever found, his oddness and eccentricity (i.e. a fondness for Stephen King novels and a mind for unusual scientific facts), combined with his being the last to see her alive, were enough to establish his guilt in the minds of the people of Chabot, Mississippi. Known widely as Scary Larry, Ott has been living with the stigma of this accusation for the last twenty-five years, and when another young girl goes missing, fingers begin to point in his direction.
