"White's move", or "White's turn" would be more suitable.
I tried to search for a story with that title, without specifying the author, and still did not find anything similar to the Russian translation. Strange - as if the translator himself composed the story)

But in the process of searching, I found another book about chess: Kevin Stokker "White to Move and Lose"

Narziss und Goldmund - Hermann Hesse

One big chessgame.
I don't recall, whether chess ever gets spelled out in it, or not, but it's one big game of chess alright.

Carrion Comfort, Dan Simmons

Whodunit.

Fischer-Spassky 1972!

I read it in German.

I've read it too. In either English or Dutch.

Trenton Lee Stewart.

"The Flanders Panel" by the Spanish author: Arturo Perez-reverte. Any one of his books is good but this one has chess as a main theme. "What We Become" is the American title of another of his chess themed mysteries.
I have not read this one but will soon as I know it will be excellent.

"The Chess Players" (1960) the fictionalized biography of Paul Morphy. Written by Frances Parkinson Keyes who incidentally was the wife of a USA senator.

And finally, "The Eight"by Katherine Neville. Mystery, suspense, and spies. The protagonist is a female chess wunderkind. Not great literature but a lengthy and fun Summer beach read.

You know you are doubting/questioning the actual author in essence!

That's just another fellow chess book, I don't see any connection of that with the one you talked about before.
