Bought this one for my new book club. I had seen it around and wanted to read it, so kudos to the host for her selection.

Synopsis

An international publishing sensation, Stieg Larsson's Girl with the Dragon Tattoo combines murder mystery, family saga, love story, and financial intrigue into one satisfyingly complex and entertainingly atmospheric novel.

Harriet Vanger, a scion of one of Sweden's wealthiest families disappeared over forty years ago. All these years later, her aged uncle continues to seek the truth. He hires Mikael Blomkvist, a crusading journalist recently trapped by a libel conviction, to investigate. He is aided by the pieced and tattooed punk prodigy Lisbeth Salander. Together they tap into a vein of unfathomable iniquity and astonishing corruption.

I finished this one a while ago and with this, that, and the other am just getting around to registering it and such. I thought it was very well written and grabbed me from the very beginning. The description of business stuff bored me silly though. Fortunately, there wasn't too much of it. My favorite character was Lisabeth. I was truly hoping that she Mikael would get it together...but it is a trilogy, so maybe the ending hasn't happened yet.
