Låt vågorna göra resten Let the Waves Do the Rest
One day, the author Marcus is contacted by Ernst, an old friend from writing school, who wants to publish a suspense novel under a pseudonym. Can Marcus pass the manuscript to his agent, ensuring Ernst’s identity remains secret? A simple favor. A minor misunderstanding. Complicated consequences. And a man who discovers he is capable of things he never could have imagined.
Let the Waves Do the Rest is a psychological thriller in the vein of Patricia Highsmith.
Reviews

“Ulf Kvensler is really good at dramaturgy. /…/ The story’s basic premise is quite brilliant. /…/ Within this premise, there are natural fields of tension that the author skillfully exploits in this continuously escalated psychological drama, where the limits of what is possible are challenged and transcended on the way to various types of resolutions and, just like in the two previous books, a nerve-wracking ending—a sparkling little box whose contents we, the readers, get to create ourselves. He has carved out his own niche within the genre, and very few have succeeded in doing so. Truly impressive.”

“Kvensler’s Let the Waves Do the Rest is a psychological thriller that brings to mind the works of Patricia Highsmith. Once again, Kvensler demonstrates his ability to craft suggestive and suspenseful stories.
/…/ Just like in The Couples Trip, the characters are well-drawn and the relationships feel believable. (…) With a well-constructed plot and a writing style that invites binge-reading, Let the Waves Do the Rest is a compelling and cohesive thriller that keeps the reader on edge.”
