How does the author create suspense while writing this marvelous book?

Really we are just waiting for something to go wrong, especially with Lennie. Lennie's problems are foreshadowed before anything happens at the ranch. We hope that the lonely misfits get their farm but there is an overall tension in tone and mood that tells us otherwise.
