For all the fans of the Millennium trilogy, there is good news. Lisbeth Salander is back. When Stieg Larsson, the author, died suddenly in 2004, millions of fans who read this series felt that it had come to an end. There were rumors that there was a fourth uncompleted manuscript, but nothing happened until now.
On September 1, a new book written by Swedish crime novelist David Lagercrantz will be released. Titled “The Girl in the Spider’s Web” it picks up a few years after “The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest.” Salander is reunited with Mikael Blomkvist and together they set out to find out the truth about the murder of scientist Frans Balder. Once again Blomkvist calls upon Lisbeth’s hacking skills. Along the way they must deal with the NSA, the Russian mob, and Lisbeth’s twin sister.
According to one reviewer ” if you hadn’t seen his name on the book jacket, you’d likely assume it was Larsson’s own handiwork. This will definitely make it to the best seller list very quickly.
