The third book of the trilogy begins minutes after the end of the previous book. Lisbeth Salander is in hospital with a bullet in her head, while a couple of doors down the corridor is the man she tried to kill. She is also accused of 3 other murders.
While she spends most of the book in isolation in a hospital bed, various conspiracies and investigations are going on elsewhere. These involve the Secret Police, Millennium magazine, Milton Securities and a load of other dodgy characters.
During the course of the book we learn a lot more about Lisbeth's father, and what she went through in her teens. There is a huge cover up involving a Russian defector, and a court trial at the end.
I did enjoy the book once I really got into it, but I found I had to concentrate quite a lot due to the vast number of characters and their Swedish names. But it is very well written and a great story.
