The second installment of
Stieg Larsson’s phenomenally popular
Millennium Trilogy finds everyone’s favorite hacker, Lisbeth Salander, accused of killing two journalists about to publish an exposé on
Sweden’s sex trafficking industry in none other than
Millennium, the magazine owned and operated by Salander’s ex-colleague and -lover, Mikael Blomkvist. Now it’s up to him and him alone to prove her innocence before the police—or the real killers—track her down. Can Blomkvist save Salander in time? And, more importantly, does Salander even need saving?
Finally, Larsson puts the spotlight where it belongs—Salander!

Salander (aka Noomi Rapace) from the Swedish films.
Who wouldn't trust that sweet little face? |
And that—coupled with the cliffhanger ending—makes this a much more entertaining read than
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Because who the heck cares about boring old Blomkvist? Not me.
Bring on more Salander!
I agree. I liked the second book better.
