The second book in Stieg Larson's Trilogy, The Girl Who Played with Fire has Michael Blomkvist planning to run a story that will expose an extensive sex trafficking operation in Sweden.
On the eve of its publication, the two reporters responsible for the article are murdered, and the fingerprints found on the murder weapon belong to his friend, the troubled genius hacker Lisbeth Salander. Blomkvist, convinced of Salander’s innocence, plunges into an investigation. Meanwhile, Salander herself is drawn into a murderous game of cat and mouse, which forces her to face her dark past.

ReplyDeleteThis book was a little hard to get into, although I was interested to keep reading to see what happened. Wasn't one of my favourites and I probably won't read anymore of the trilogy, however I am glad that I read it.
Once again, a book that I couldn't put down. A tangled and convoluted plot that seems to come together satisfactorily in the end, this was a favourite.
ReplyDeleteLisbeth is like a nordic MacGyver, an amazingly resilient and level headed heroine who can extract herself from any predicament.
