Far From True by Linwood Barclay
The Drive in Theater screen crumbles after an explosion killing several people. The police are involved. A private inspector is involved. The reporter turned campaign manager starts to look into it. Seems like some of the people in town are into wife swapping and then taping then activities. The investigation never really concentrates on who blew up the screen but rather the lives of the people who were killed. Plus, there some child kidnapping in there as well. Lots of plot. Lots of plot.
I get the feeling that some of the characters are from other books Barclay has written. I he references the first book in the trilogy in kind of an off hand way so the book can be read without reference to the first book. And Barclay talks about some of the new characters in the same offhand way so I figure there are other books. Barclay is prolific and I started with this trilogy since it got all the press.
Still very pedestrian writing but I'm kind of intrigued to see where it goes and who is doing all the killing.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
