The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
by Stieg Larsson
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 Blomkvist must first spend a year researching a mysterious disappearance that has remained unsolved for nearly four decades. With few other options, he accepts and enlist he help of investigator Lisbeth Salander, a misunderstood genius with 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.
