The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Stieg Larsson is an author whose characters and plots are indispensable to the universe of modern thrillers. The sales of his books worldwide have surpassed 100,000,000 copies. The novel "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" has been adapted into film... twice, and both adaptations—the Swedish one and the Hollywood one by the unparalleled David Fincher—have become as cult-like as the book itself. Like the entire "Millennium" trilogy, which permanently changed the rules of suspense literature.

For forty years, the mystery of the disappearance of a young relative has troubled an aging industrial magnate, and now he makes one last attempt in his life—he hires 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 have occurred over the years in different parts of Sweden? What do quotations from the Third Book of Moses have to do with it? And who, in the end, attempted on Mikael's life when he got too close to the solution? Moreover, he could not have imagined that the investigation would lead him into a veritable hell amidst the idyllic peaceful town.
