Wild Town is a crime novel by Jim Thompson, published in 1957. It weaves together threads of murder, embezzlement, blackmail, and seduction in the post oil boom West Texas of the 1920s. The various locations (a hotel, the towns that grow around oil sites) and characters (Bellboys, Sheriff, Oil Wildcatter) are all highly influenced by Thompson's jobs and homes growing up and living in Oklahoma and Texas.
