What Hannah and the others don’t know is that professional killer Kat is on her way to Haparanda to find the missing bags.It triggers a brutal spiral of violence in the small town that turns out to have connections to Hannah’s dark painful pasts”, you can read about the series at TV4.

“Wolf summer” somehow feels very Swedish and very un-Swedish at the same time. A hybrid of criminal and northern western,” wrote, for example Karolina Fjellborg in a review in Aftonbladetwhere she also gave the series four plus.

As you know, “Wolf Summer” is based on Hans Rosenfeldt hit novel of the same name. This book came out in 2020. A sequel was supposed to come out in 2022, but it hasn’t come out yet.
– I haven’t had time. Another script job has taken over. It was quite hard to write and I didn’t have much fun. It was good, but the process was a bit too difficult. The sequel may come, but right now I don’t feel like it, Rosenfeldt has said Borås Newspaper.

But the author is not actually directly involved in the TV4 series.
– It’s a long story. I don’t want to go into it. It just happened that way. We didn’t really agree on the vision, and C-More finally chose to go with a different vision. It was a bit turbulent there for a while. I am completely disconnected from that project, he has told the newspaper.
