      Der achte Band der international erfolgreichen Millennium-Reihe Langsam kehrt die Sonne in den Norden Schwedens zurück, doch die Lage in der kleinen Stadt Gasskas ist düster: Die Bodenschätze der Region werden ohne Rücksicht auf Land und Leute ausgebeutet. Eine Gruppe von Aktivisten, denen sich auch Lisbeth Salanders Nichte Svala anschließt, will verhindern, dass der stillgelegte Tagebau zu neuem Leben erweckt wird. Doch für ihre Vision eines Bergbauimperiums scheuen gnadenlose Unternehmer auch vor Mord nicht zurück. Während Mikael Blomkvist einen neuen Job bei der Gasskaser Zeitung antritt, sucht Lisbeth mit seiner Hilfe nach ihrem verschwundenen Freund, dem Hacker Plague. Als die Fäden zusammenlaufen, erkennt Salander, dass jemand es eigentlich auf sie und Svala abgesehen hat. Und rüstet zum Kampf gegen alte und neue Gegner. »Frisch, furchtlos, nah an den Vorgängern und trotzdem originell. Eine der weltweit erfolgreichsten Krimireihen könnte nicht in besseren Händen sein. Ich bin ein Fan.« Chris Whitaker

      Lisbeth Salander's mentor and protector Holger Palmgren is dead, and she has been gone from Stockholm since his funeral. All summer, Mikael Blomkvist has been plagued by the fear that Salander's enemies will come after her. He should, perhaps, be more concerned for himself

    • THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO LIVES ON. Lisbeth Salander is an unstoppable force: Sentenced to two months in Flodberga women's prison for saving a young boy's life by any means necessary, Salander refuses to say anything in her own defence. She has more important things on her mind. Mikael Blomkvist makes the long trip to visit every week - and receives a lead to follow for his pains. For him, it looks to be an important expose for Millennium. For her, it could unlock the facts of her childhood. Even from a corrupt prison system run largely by the inmates, Salander will stand up for what she believes in, whatever the cost. And she will seek the truth that is somehow connected with her childhood memory, of a woman with a blazing birthmark on her neck - that looked as if it had been burned by a dragon's fire . . . The tension, power and unstoppable force of The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye are inspired by Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy, as Salander and Blomkvist continue the fight for justice that has thrilled millions of readers across the world. Translated from the Swedish by George Goulding

      THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO IS BACK WITH A UK NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist have not been in touch for some time. Then Blomkvist is contacted by renowned Swedish scientist Professor Balder. Warned that his life is in danger, but more concerned for his son's well-being, Balder wants Millennium to publish his story - and it is a terrifying one. More interesting to Blomkvist than Balder's world-leading advances in Artificial Intelligence, is his connection with a certain female superhacker. It seems that Salander, like Balder, is a target of ruthless cyber gangsters - and a violent criminal conspiracy that will very soon bring terror to the snowbound streets of Stockholm, to the Millennium team, and to Blomkvist and Salander themselves.

      Racconti inediti dei maestri del giallo svedese

      • 14 hours of reading

      I successi editoriali degli ultimi anni hanno mostrato al mondo l'eccellenza del giallo scandinavo, con autori che si sono imposti sulla scena internazionale con i loro personaggi, il sorprendente realismo, il contrasto seducente tra un'immagine quasi idilliaca di quiete e benessere e l'efferatezza di crimini incomprensibili. Dalle suggestive atmosfere di un nord selvaggio degli inizi del secolo scorso di Åsa Larsson alla fantascienza di un giovanissimo Stieg Larsson, questa raccolta di storie inedite di alcuni dei maggiori scrittori nordici di suspense fornisce un prezioso sguardo d'insieme sul giallo svedese. Dalla narrazione più classica di Sjöwall e Wahlöö al delizioso metaracconto di due maestri come Henning Mankell e Håkan Nesser - che ci accompagnano in una strana notte nella vita dei loro due più famosi protagonisti -, fino alla vena mistica di Tove Alsterdal e alla magia dell'isola di Öland raccontata da Johan Theorin, troviamo in queste pagine tutte le sfumature del genere. Autori noti e autori da scoprire compongono una raccolta che svela il lato oscuro della Svezia con le sue ombre più profonde, a riprova del perché il giallo nordico ha stregato milioni di lettori nel mondo.

      The stunning third and final novel in Stieg Larsson’s internationally best-selling trilogy Lisbeth Salander—the heart of Larsson’s two previous novels—lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She’s fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she’ll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of her friend, journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. And, on her own, she will plot revenge—against the man who tried to kill her, and the corrupt government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. Once upon a time, she was a victim. Now Salander is fighting back.

      O segundo volume da trilogia Millennium explora a complexa personalidade e os segredos de Lisbeth Salander, a jovem hacker acusada de três assassinatos brutais. "Não há inocentes. Apenas diferentes graus de responsabilidade", reflete Lisbeth, a protagonista. O autor, um jornalista sueco que desmascarou organizações de extrema direita, faleceu sem ver o sucesso de sua saga, que já vendeu mais de 10 milhões de cópias. Nas narrativas de Larsson, nada é o que parece. Lisbeth, que pode parecer frágil, é, na verdade, uma mulher determinada e habilidosa em ciberpirataria e pugilismo, pronta para atacar quando ameaçada. Mikael Blomkvist, um jornalista em busca de uma grande matéria, é, na realidade, um investigador obstinado em expor os crimes obscuros da sociedade sueca, envolvendo desde repórteres sensacionalistas a magistrados corruptos. Um dos crimes envolve o tutor de Lisbeth, assassinado a tiros, e, na mesma noite, dois outros assassinatos ocorrem: um jornalista e uma criminologista prestes a denunciar uma rede de tráfico de mulheres. A arma usada, um Colt 45 Magnum, contém as impressões digitais de Lisbeth, que desaparece, sendo procurada por triplo homicídio. Mikael acredita que ela está apenas aguardando o momento certo para provar sua inocência e buscar justiça à sua maneira.

Lisbeth, porém, não se contenta em apenas se defender; ela busca vingança e conta com aliados valiosos. Além de Mikael, a equipe inclui Annika Giannini, uma advogada especializada em defender mulheres vítimas de violência, e o inspetor Jan Bublanski, que segue sua própria linha investigativa, desafiando a promotoria. Juntos, eles se aproximam de desmantelar um plano sórdido que se desenvolveu nos subterrâneos do Estado sueco, envolvendo um perigoso espião russo que Lisbeth já tentou eliminar duas vezes. A obra aborda de maneira original as mazelas da sociedade contemporânea, consolidando seu lugar na literatura policial atual.
