The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

The first installment of the Millennium series, featuring the intriguing Lisbeth Salander, has become a worldwide sensation. With a preface by the acclaimed Val McDermid, the novel delves into a mystery that has haunted the Vanger family for decades. Forty years have passed since Harriet Vanger vanished during a family gathering on an island owned by the influential and secretive Vanger clan. Although her body was never found, her uncle remains convinced that she was murdered, and that the perpetrator is one of their own. To uncover the truth, he enlists the help of Mikael Blomkvist, a journalist facing professional ruin, and Lisbeth Salander, a fiercely independent and enigmatic hacker known for her distinctive tattoos. As Blomkvist and Salander dig deeper, they connect Harriet's disappearance with a series of gruesome murders that took place four decades ago, revealing unsettling secrets about the Vanger family's past. However, as they pursue the truth, they encounter the lengths to which this powerful family will go to guard their secrets. Stieg Larsson's remarkable trilogy is followed by "The Girl in the Spider's Web" and "The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye," continued by David Lagercrantz.
