The second installment in Lisbeth Salander's trilogy is an incredible thriller. I was so hooked up I could hardly put it down. I found the story much more interesting that the first book, because this time it reveals bit by bit pieces of Lisbeth's background, and you get to know - and understand - why she's the way she is.
At the start of the book we learn that Lisbeth has spent the last year travelling the world, while Mikael Blomkvist is once more a famous and respected journalist, editor of the magazine Millenium. A freelancer comes to him with a surprising proposal: publish his story and his book about trafficking in Sweden. There's a ring that deals in russian prostitutes and the journalist has enough information to back his story. However, a shady character starts to pop out...
Lisbeth returns to Sweden, still not wanting to renew her relationship with Blomkvist. Her sudden reaperance shakes her former Advokat, who is obsessed with revenge, and sets in motion events that will turn Lisbeth in Sweden's Public Enemy Number 1, and the object of a cruel chase.
Can Lisbeth, the girl who played with gasoline, outwit her tormentors and have justice done?
