Professor Hans Rekke: born into a wealthy Stockholm family, world authority on interrogation techniques, capable of vertiginous feats of logic and observation... But he might just fall apart when the going gets tough, leading to substance abuse and despair.

Micaela Vargas: community police officer, born to Chilean political refugees in a tough suburb, with two brothers on the shady side of the law.

Vargas feels she has something to prove. She's tenacious and uncompromising, but she needs Rekke's unique mind to help her solve the case. Rekke has it all - wealth, reputation - but also a tendency to throw it all away. He needs Vargas to help him get back on an even keel so he can focus his mind on finding the killer before they're both silenced for good.

Book 1 in the Rekke series.

Leonard Corell, a detective sergeant in the sleepy town of Wilmslow, is tasked with investigating the suicide of a local recluse, Alan Turing. Torn between admiration for the dead man's genius and disgust for his sexuality, Corell continues to investigate the open-and-shut case, stumbling across forbidden knowledge about the marvels of Bletchley Park, and the horrors of its hero's downfall.

Claire Lidman died fourteen years ago. So why does she appear in the background of a recent holiday snap taken in Venice?

Her husband brings the anomaly to Hans Rekke and Micaela Vargas. Initial scepticism gives way to cautious belief, but Rekke is falling apart again and Vargas has her own problems.

Meanwhile, Rekke's daughter Julia has a new boyfriend she's determined to keep secret. He sees something in her she can't see herself, but there are hints of a darker side.

Most troubling of all, Rekke is hearing whispers of a name he hasn't heard for years. A rival from his youth whose restless evil links all the threads in this incipient case. The pieces are laid and he's already one move ahead. The name of the game is revenge.

Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist have not been in touch for some time. Then Blomkvist is contacted by renowned Swedish scientist Professor Balder. It seems that Salander, like Balder, is a target of a violent criminal conspiracy that will very soon bring terror to the streets of Stockholm, to the Millennium team, and to Blomkvist and Salander themselves. Continuing Stieg Larsson's Millennium Series.

Lisbeth Salander's mentor Holger Palmgren is dead, and she has been gone from Stockholm since his funeral. All summer, Mikael Blomkvist has been plagued by the fear that Salander's enemies will come after her. He should, perhaps, be more concerned for himself... For the girl with the dragon tattoo, the personal is always political - and ultimately deadly.

Confined to the secure unit of a women's prison, Lisbeth Salander knows she is coming closer to solving the mysteries of her early life and feels the deadly influence exerted by her twin sister. Continuing Stieg Larsson's Millennium Series.
