A review by rmarcin
The Tenant by Katrine Engberg

4.0

Thriller set in Copenhagen, which I enjoyed, because I have been to this beautiful city, and some of the landmarks were familiar to me. I thought the storyline was interesting, but I am not sure that the lines of the story were clean - perhaps it had to do with the translation into English.
The Tenant is about a young girl, Julie, who is murdered in her apartment. She is the tenant in a 3 story building. Esther is the landlord, and a writer. Strangely enough, Esther has begun to write a book detailing a murder of a young woman, which is modeled on Julie.
More sinister things happen, and Jeppe and Anette, the investigators on the case, keep uncovering more and more strange situations. They have multiple suspects, and try to zero in on the murderer.
Meanwhile, Jeppe has not fully recovered from his split with his wife, and isn't emotionally stable, plus he is taking OxyContin for his "back issues".
When they discover who the murderer is, and why he killed, Jeppe and Anette are in a race to save those that they can.
