“A Roadmap to Literary Mysteries” (by Bob Van Laerhoven)

“A Roadmap to Literary Mysteries” (by Bob Van Laerhoven) | SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN: Bob Van Laerhoven’s story “Checkmate in Chimbote” appeared in EQMM’s June 2014 issue and was read for our podcast series by his translator, Josh Pachter, earlier this year. The Belgian journalist made his fiction debut in 1977 as a short-story writer, and in 1985 as a literary novelist. More than thirty novels followed, some of them crossovers between literary fiction and the suspense novel.
