The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard)by Stieg Larsson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:An International Bestselling Sensation A murder mystery, family saga, love story, and a tale of financial intrigue wrapped into one satisfyingly complex and entertainingly atmospheric novel. Harriet Vanger, scion of one of Sweden's wealthiest families, disappeared over forty years ago. All these years later, her aged uncle continues to seek the truth. He hires Mikael Blomkvist, a crusading journalist recently trapped by a libel conviction, to investigate. He is aided by the pieced and tattooed punk prodigy Lisbeth Salander. Together they tap into a vein of unfathomable iniquity and astonishing corruption. Review:"A blockbuster story...The plot is interesting and credible but above all the heroine is splendidly original...An extraordinary book." Literary Review Review:"What a cracking novel! I haven't read such a stunning thriller debut for years. The way Larsson interweaves his two stories had me in thrall from beginning to end. Brilliantly written and totally gripping." Minette Walters Review:"This is a striking novel, full of passion, an evocative sense of place and subtle insights into venal, corrupt minds...The journalist and the hacker are ingenious creations." The Observer Review:"A whip-smart heroine and a hunky guy who needs her help? This sexy, addictive thriller is everything you never knew you could get from a crime novel." Glamour Review:"The ballyhoo is fully justified...The novel scores on every front — character, story, atmosphere, and the translation." The Times Review:"As vivid as bloodstains on snow." Lee Child Review:"One of the greatest crime-fiction novels I have ever read...As mesmerizing as it is insightful...The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a multi-layered, multi-character tale by a writer of some considerable power. Full of social conscience and compassion, with insight into the nature of moral corruption, it knocked me out...Mikael Blomkvist and his partner, the enigmatic and deeply troubled Lisbeth Salander, will soon join the pantheon of greatest crime-fiction characters that populate the genre at its apex." Shots Magazine Review:"An absorbing and idiosyncratic crime novel." Daily Mail From the Hardcover edition. Synopsis:In this international bestseller, a crusading journalist joins forces with a 24-year-old pierced and tattooed genius hacker to investigate the whereabouts of a woman missing from one of the wealthiest families in Sweden.
