L'aver portato alla luce un intrigo criminale internazionale, mettendo in mano al giornalista investigativo più famoso di Svezia lo scoop del decennio, non è bastato a risparmiare a Lisbeth Salander una breve condanna da scontare in un carcere di massima sicurezza. E così, mentre a Mikael Blomkvist e a Millennium vanno onori e gloria, lei si ritrova a Flodberga insieme alle peggiori delinquenti del Paese, anche se la cosa non sembra preoccuparla più di tanto. È in grado di tener testa alle detenute più spietate e ha altro a cui pensare. Ora che è venuta in possesso di informazioni che potrebbero aggiungere un fondamentale tassello al quadro della sua tortuosa infanzia, vuole vederci chiaro. Con l'aiuto di Mikael, la celebre hacker comincia a indagare su una serie di nominativi di un misterioso elenco che risveglia in lei velati ricordi. Soprattutto quello di una donna con una voglia rosso fiammante sul collo. Nella sua inestinguibile sete di giustizia, Lisbeth è pronta a sputare fiamme e a distruggere il male con il fuoco che brucia dentro tutti quelli che vengono calpestati.

Only Hoffmann's handler, Erik Wilson, knows he now hides in Cali, Colombia, living under a false identity with his wife Zofia and sons Rasmus and Hugo. But life on the run is precarious. And so when Hoffmann, in order to survive, accepts employment as a bodyguard and hit man for the Colombian cocaine mafia, and is simultaneously approached by the US DEA to infiltrate the same cartel, he chooses to say yes to both. Hoffmann has a new, lucrative double life

It is the first thaw of spring and the body of a young woman surfaces in the River Thorne in the far north of Sweden. Rebecka Martinsson is working as a prosecutor in nearby Karuna. Her sleep has been disturbed by haunting visions of a shadowy, accusing figure. Could the body belong to the ghost in her dreams? And where is the dead girl's boyfriend, also reported as missing the previous winter? Joining forces once again with Police Inspectors Anna-Maria Mella and Sven-Erik St. lnacke, Rebecka is drawn into an investigation that centres on old rumours about a plane carrying supplies for German troops in 1943 that never arrived. Shame and secrecy shroud the locals' memories of the war, with Sweden's early collaboration with the Nazis still a raw wound. And on the windswept shore of a frozen lake lurks a killer who will kill again to keep the past buried for ever beneath half a century's silent ice and snow
It is midsummer in Sweden-when the light lingers through dawn and the long winter comes to an end. Now, in this magical time, a brutal killer has chosen to strike, and the murder of a female priest sends shockwaves through the community. It has been almost two years since attorney Rebecka Martinsson returned to her birthplace, Kiruna, in order to stop an eerily similar murder spree. Now she is back in Kiruna, where a determined policewoman works on the case and the people who loved or loathed the victim mourn or revel in her demise. As Rebecka is drawn into a mystery that soon will claim another victim, the dead woman's world consumes her: a world of hurt and healing, sin and sexuality, and above all, of lethal sacrifice.
A Kiruna, una terra avvolta nell'eterna notte polare, giace il corpo massacrato del predicatore più famoso della Svezia, morto per la seconda volta. La prima volta era stato investito da un'auto ma si era risvegliato e aveva raccontato del regno fra la vita e la morte. Diventato una star, aveva usato la sua nuova forza per riunificare tre diverse congregazioni in un'unica, potente comunità religiosa. Chiamata dalla sorella della vittima, l'avvocato Rebecka torna alla sua città natale per aiutare l'amica di gioventù, sospettata dell'omicidio. Avvolte dalla neve e dal buio dell'inverno lappone, Rebecka e l'ispettrice di polizia Anna Maria Mella, in avanzato stato di gravidanza, indagano alla ricerca del vero colpevole.
When a headless corpse is found by a prison work gang on a windy Tibetan mountainside, veteran police inspector, Shan Tao Yun might seem the perfect man to solve the crime - except that he himself is serving an indefinite sentence. Desperate to close the case, the district commander has no choice but to grant him a temporary release.

For power. For passion. For glory. This epic tale follows Arn Magnusson, born in 1150 to a noble family in Western Götaland. A miraculous recovery from a fall marks his fate, leading his mother to promise his life in service to God. Sent to Varnhem monastery, Arn matures under Father Henri, a devoted Cistercian monk.

As Arn returns home, he finds his monastic upbringing clashing with his clan's traditions. His family soon realizes he possesses more than just scholarly knowledge, proving invaluable during a time of turmoil following a king's murder, as ambitious lords vie for power. Amidst this chaos, Arn meets the enchanting Cecilia, but a naive mistake forces him into a foreign war, sending him to the Holy Land to fight infidels for twenty years. From the frozen landscapes of Northern Europe to the bloody battlefields of the Middle East, Arn encounters brave knights, powerful queens, and treacherous kings. This first installment of a bestselling trilogy presents a thrilling epic of betrayal, faith, blood, and love, set against the backdrop of the Holy Wars, offering a vibrant and unorthodox perspective on a Shakespearian quest for power.
