Description

|
|
(A New York Times Notable Book of 2010) In this stunning third novel in Stieg Larsson's wildly popular, Anthony Award–winning crime series, Lisbeth Salander (the girl at the heart of Larsson's two previous novels) lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She's fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she'll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. "Fans will not be disappointed: this is another roller-coaster ride that keeps you reading far too late into the night. Intricate but flawlessly plotted, it has complex characters as well as a satisfying, clear moral thrust."—Evening Standard (London)
