What is the general subject of the Larsson books? What I’ve seen - trailer for the movie? - seemed pretty creepy.
It’s about a girl who was the daughter of a Russian defector in Sweden; she was thought to be schizophrenic and a few other complicated syndromes, but she had an eidetic memory and knew how to hack into almost any computer in the world.
Her fight to be “normal” involves a lot of peripheral stories that all come together about half-way through the third book.
Riveting, is about all I can say.
A murder long ago. It’s really a mystery not scary at all. Well worth the read, but it builds very slowly. If you start the first book and like it you need to read all 3 since its really one story. They have to be read in order. If you don’t like the first book after a bit then don’t bother with the other 2 since the pacing and style don’t change. Both my wife and I read all 3 and liked the books.
