Lisbeth Salander decides to get revenge on her enemies—not only the criminal elements who want her dead, but also the government that nearly destroyed her life a few years ago. And she must also escape the hospital where she’s being held under guard, considered a dangerous psychopath, and make sure her name disappears from the list of suspects in a murder.
So she can’t do without the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist. Only his exposé article can shake Swedish society to its foundations and alarm the government and the special services. Then Lisbeth will have a chance to leave her past behind and achieve justice.
