The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Stieg Larsson is an author whose characters and plots are indispensable for imagining the universe of modern thrillers. His books have sold over 100,000,000 copies worldwide. The novel «The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo» has been adapted into film twice,... and both adaptations—the Swedish and the Hollywood one by the incomparable David Fincher—have become as cult-like as the book itself. Like the entire «Millennium» trilogy, which irrevocably changed the laws of thrill-seeking literature. For forty years, the mystery of the disappearance of a young relative has not given peace to the aging industrial magnate, and now he makes one last attempt in his life—he commissions journalist Mikael Blomkvist to investigate. He takes on the hopeless case more to distract himself from his own troubles but soon realizes: the problem is even more complex than it seems at first glance. How is an old incident on the island connected to several murders of women that took place in different years in various corners of Sweden? What do quotes from the Third Book of Moses have to do with it? And who, ultimately, is out to take Mikael's life when he got too close to the truth? Moreover, he could not even imagine that the investigation would lead him straight into hell amid the idyllic peaceful town. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ «A wildly intense, intelligent thriller with a genius plot that fully captivates the reader». — The Washington Post «A delightful novel written with incredible passion». — The Guardian «Uniquely and mesmerizingly.
