What you need to know before your trail

She is the girl with the dragon tattoo—a genius hacker and uncompromising misfit. Mikel is a crusading journalist. The two share a background story but have not been in touch for some time.

Late one night however, Blomkvist receives a phone call from a source claiming to have information vital to the United States. Mention is made of a young female superhacker and she reminds Blomkvist of someone he knows all too well.

Blomkvist, in desperate need of a scoop for Millennium, turns to Salander for help with a story with tentacles in the world of spies, cyber criminals and more . Secrets they are both chasing and someone is prepared to kill to protect it . . .

Travel Guide

“This story begins with a dream, and not a particularly spectacular one at that, Just a hand beating rhythmically and relentlessly on a mattress in a room on Lundagatan

Yet it still gets Lisbeth Salander out of her bed in the early light of dawn. Then she sits at her computer and  starts the hunt.”

Stockholm

This is the Stockholm of Lisbeth Salander, a world full of intrigue and dark dark alley ways containing even darker secrets. She lives in Lundagatan but she really lives in the cyber world where she feels safest and most protected from the world around her.

Sodermalm and The Millennium  offices

“The Sodermalm district seemed to have been drained of all colour”  This is the site of the Millennium offices where Blomkvist works and where the whole sorry story comes to light.
