In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Gary Braver discusses his new book, Rumor of Evil. In this mystery novel, Gary weaves together two seemingly unrelated murders—-one past and one present. Two police detectives catch a case of a woman’s murder that is staged to look like a suicide. As their investigation unfolds, they discover clues leading back to a decades-old murder of a teenage foreign exchange student. In crafting this story, Gary was inspired by the 2014 true-crime Slender Man case, from which he studied the profiles of both the bullied and the bullies. Gary believes the draw of the mystery genre comes down to the differences between true crime stories and fiction-—namely that in fiction, motives become clear and, in the end, justice is usually served. In this episode, I’ll chat with Gary about his writing journey, what his career as an English professor taught him about writing his own stories, and why he says it is important that the detectives have the most to lose in a mystery novel.
