The Blurb On The Back:

The Industrialist

Henrik Vanger, head of the dynastic Vanger Corporation, is tormented by the loss of a child decades earlier and convinced that a member of his family has committed murder.

The Journalist

Mikael Blomkvist delves deep into the Vangers’ past to uncover the truth behind the unsolved mystery. But someone else wants the past to remain a secret and will go to any lengths to keep it that way.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Lisbeth Salander, the enigmatic, delinquent and dangerous security specialist, assists in the investigation. A genius computer hacker, she tolerates no restrictions placed upon her by individuals, society or the law.


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The complexity of the plot kept me turning the pages but this is not a well-written book, with clunky dialogue and characterisation that descends into cliché at times. However, it is worth checking out to see what the fuss is about.
