In Katrine Engberg's "The Tenant," Copenhagen detectives Jeppe Korner and Anette Werner investigate the brutal murder of young woman Julie, found dead in her apartment. Their investigation leads them to Julie's landlady, Esther de Laurenti, a budding novelist whose unfinished mystery eerily mirrors the crime, with Julie as the victim. As the detectives delve deeper, Esther's role becomes increasingly ambiguous, blurring the lines between suspect and potential victim. The unsettling parallels between Esther's fiction and the real-life murder compel the detectives to race against time to unravel the truth behind this chilling game.
