Summary
The third instalment of the Millennium Trilogy - which has now sold more than 26 million copies worldwide.
Salander is plotting her revenge – against the man who tried to kill her, and againstthe government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. 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.

Great story but ...
Really good story. Having listened to book one and two I expected the same narrator but sadly not. I couldn’t enjoy the new narrator, his cadence was all wrong and he didn’t sound credible. The main character had turned into a cockney which sounded ridiculous. A few of the other accents were very out of keeping too. Such a pity. I guess I should have listened
to the sample!

Not the full version
Well performed, but abridged. It will give you the gist of the story, but not the full 746 pages. Chapters also not the same as the printed version. If you listen only, this is great. If you read along like I do, try another version.

Makes you want to drive to India!
The whole "The Girl..." series is very very absorbing. I lost track of time and wait in the garage for a pause to start for tomorrow. There are same issues not settle through the series, you have an episode here and there leads you to nowhere, but never the less it makes driving my favourite pass time!

Another riveting read
Full of class, deep knowledge of the Swedish legal system, and fabulously intricate weaving of the story working towards its complex but totally plausible conclusion... I am definitely moving straighf on to the next volume immediately.
