Mikael Blomkvist, Millennium magazine's legendary star reporter, does not believe the police. Using all his magazine staff and resources to prove Salander's innocence, Blomkvist also uncovers her terrible past, spent in criminally corrupt institutions. Yet Salander is more avenging angel than helpless victim. She may be an expert at staying out of sight - but she has ways of tracking down her most elusive enemies.

Lisbeth Salander--the fierce, unstoppable girl with the dragon tattoo--has disappeared. She's sold her apartment in Stockholm. She's gone silent electronically. She's told no one where she is. And no one is aware that at long last she's got her primal enemy, her twin sister, Camilla, squarely in her sights. Mikael Blomkvist is trying to reach Lisbeth. He needs her help unraveling the identity of a man who lived and died on the streets in Stockholm--a man who does not exist in any official records and whose garbled last words hinted at possible damaging knowledge of people in the highest echelons of government and industry. In his pocket was a crumpled piece of paper with Blomkvist's phone number on it. Once again, Salander and Blomkvist will come to each other's aid, moving in tandem toward the truths they each seek. In the end, it will be Blomkvist--in a moment of unimaginable self-sacrifice--who will make it possible for Lisbeth to face the most important battle of her life, and, finally, to put her past to rest.

Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist have not been in touch for some time.Then Blomkvist is contacted by renowned Swedish scientist Professor Balder. Warned that his life is in danger, but more concerned for his son's well-being, Balder wants Millennium to publish his story - and it is a terrifying one.More interesting to Blomkvist than Balder's world-leading advances in Artificial Intelligence, is his connection with a certain female superhacker.It seems that Salander, like Balder, is a target of ruthless cyber gangsters - and a violent criminal conspiracy that will very soon bring terror to the snowbound streets of Stockholm, to the Millennium team, and to Blomkvist and Salander themselves.++++++++++++++++++++++Tidskriften Millennium har fått nya ägare. Elaka tungor hävdar att tiden har sprungit ifrån Mikael Blomkvist och han funderar på om han borde göra något annat. Lisbeth Salander är rastlös. Hon medverkar i en hackerattack till synes utan någon särskild anledning. Hon tar risker hon vanligtvis är noga med att undvika. Det är inte likt henne. En sen natt ringer professor Frans Balder, en ledande auktoritet inom AI-forskning, till Blomkvist. Balder säger sig sitta på världsavgörande information om amerikanska underrättelsetjänsten. Han har dessutom haft kontakt med en ung kvinnlig superhacker, som bär vissa likheter med en person Blomkvist känner väl. Mikael Blomkvist börjar hoppas på det scoop som både han och Millennium behöver. Lisbeth Salander har som vanligt sin alldeles egen agenda. I Det som inte dödar oss fortsätter berättelsen. Det har blivit dags för deras vägar att korsas. Ännu en gång.
