The girl with the dragon tattoo does not forget.And she does not forgive. Even in prison,Lisbeth Salander is a force for justice.She will not stand by as racial and religious conflicts run unchecked within the community around her,manipulated by criminal forces far beyond the maximum security unit's walls. Mikael Blomkvist makes a long trip to visit every week - and receives a lead to follow for his pains.For him,it looks to be an important expose for Millennium.For her,it could unlock the facts of her childhood. But the truth is not easily exposed: the scientists behind the sinister experiment they called The Registry had thought it long buried - and they will do anything to keep it that way. Salander knows she is coming closer to solving the mysteries of her early life,and putting an end to the deadly influence exerted by her twin sister,which reaches even within the confines of the prison. And she will not rest until she has found the woman in her memories.The woman with a blazing birthmark on her neck that in her child's mind took the shape of a dragon.She will have her revenge,whatever the cost. The tension,power and unstoppable force of 'The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye.' are inspired by Stieg Larsson's 'Millennium.' trilogy,as Salander and Blomkvist continue the fight for justice that has thrilled millions of reader across the world.
