The girl with the dragon tattoo - Stieg Larsson


I found this book by accident while scanning in a book shelves and saw this book under a best seller section. Never really attract with the title though.  But, this book is really one hell good one!!!

Larsson wrote it so brilliant, so twisted (I hardly can predicted whose a bad guy is)  and some of part make my cringe for very graphic words. This in not just crime story but about conspiracy, politic and social as well. Reading this book, make me understand about Swedish culture and people. After all, there's no perfect system even in a vey modern and advance country like Swedia.

Michael Blomkvist, reporter dari majalah Millennium kalah dalam persidangan melawan sebuah perusahaan besar. Dia harus membayar ganti rugi dan masuk penjara. Tiba-tiba datang tawaran dari pengusaha besar, Henrik Vanger untuk membantu memecahkan kasus cucunya yang diduga dibunuh, Harriet Vanger.  Blomkvist mendapat bantuan dari Lisbeth Salander,seorang cewek nyentrik yang jago komputer dan komputer hacker.
