But it is not going to be a straightforward campaign. After taking a bullet to the head, Salander is under close supervision in Intensive Care, and is set to face trial for three murders and one attempted murder on her eventual release. With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his researchers at Millennium magazine, Salander must not only prove her innocence, but identify and denounce the corrupt politicians that have allowed the vulnerable to become victims of abuse and violence. Once a victim herself, Salander is now ready to fight back. 3461479 book 2007 Luftslottet som sprängdes total:804|5:383|4:277|3:118|2:21|1:10| 804 3411 1911 196 3 5 false false Fri Oct 30 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 24 06:32:39 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 30 20:55:49 -0700 2009
