“Relentless suspense! Holds you in a viselike grip. Noomi Rapace is spectacular.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
“More gripping than Dragon Tattoo, because this one doesn’t just play with thriller conventions — it puts them to work.” – Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

“Lisbeth is as compelling as any movie character in recent memory.” – Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

“Rockets along with pulse-pounding tension and crackling economy. Angry, fiercely guarded, Lisbeth Salander is a great literary creation – fascinating as she is infinitely mysterious, and Rapace fits her like a glove.” – Dennis Dermody, Paper Magazine

In The Girl Who Played With Fire – the second installment in the “Millennium” trilogy  – Mikael Blomkvist is about to run a story that will expose an extensive sex trafficking operation between Eastern Europe and Sweden, implicating well-known and highly placed members of Swedish society. On the eve of publication, the two investigating reporters are murdered and the fingerprints found on the murder weapon belong to Lisbeth Salander.
