Publisher Description
As The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest opens, Lisbeth Salander—the heart and soul of Larsson's two previous novels—is under close supervision in the intensive care unit of a provincial Swedish city hospital. And she's fighting for her life in more ways than one: when she's well enough, she'll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for a triple murder. With the help of her friend, journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will have to prove her innocence, and identify and denounce the corrupt politicians who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to become victims of abuse and violence. And, on her own, she will plot her revenge—against the man who tried to kill her, and the government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. Once upon a time, she was a victim. Now, Lisbeth Salander is ready to fight back.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The exhilarating conclusion to bestseller Larsson's Millennium trilogy (after The Girl Who Played with Fire) finds Lisbeth Salander, the brilliant computer hacker who was shot in the head in the final pages of Fire, alive, though still the prime suspect in three murders in Stockholm. While she convalesces under armed guard, journalist Mikael Blomkvist works to unravel the decades-old coverup surrounding the man who shot Salander: her father, Alexander Zalachenko, a Soviet intelligence defector and longtime secret asset to S po, Sweden's security police. Estranged throughout Fire, Blomkvist and Salander communicate primarily online, but their lack of physical interaction in no way diminishes the intensity of their unconventional relationship. Though Larsson (1954 2004) tends toward narrative excess, his was an undeniably powerful voice in crime fiction that will be sorely missed. 500,000 first printing.

Don’t buy - how to contact content provider
Don’t buy books from @ibooks @apple @itunes because they will delete the version of the book you bought one day and ask you to purchase a new version of the same book because it will be unavailable for download - it’s a huge #scam basically they tell consumer to buy the same book again because it got deleted- your book won’t be for life and it’s not like the iBooks are much cheaper! ITS RIDICULOUS and wasted my money I spent on a book and never got a chance to read - all because I bought it a few years ago!!! Cheating your own customers and not providing any help to someone who wants to read what they bought with their hard earned money - I bought this in 2012 and this
version is from 2010, WHY THEN IS MY BOOK UNAVAILABLE OR NOT AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD
