The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Stieg Larsson


Once you start The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, there's no turning back.  this debut thriller--the first in a trilogy from the late Stieg Larsson--is a serious page turner.  Mikael Blomkvist, a once respected financial journalist, watches his professional life rapidly crumble around him.  Prospects appear bleak until an unexpected (and unsettling) offer to resurrect his name is extended by an old-school titan of Swedish industry.  The catch--and there's always a catch--is that Blomvkist must first spend a year researching a mysterious disappearance that has remained unsolved for nearly four decades.  With few other options, he accepts and enlists the help of investigator Lisbeth Salander, a misunderstood genius with a cache of authority issues.  Little is as it seems in Larsson's novel, but there is at least one constant: you really don't want to mess with the girl with the dragon tattoo. --Dave Callanan
