The Girl in the Eagle's Talons (Lisbeth Salander) Millennium series #7 by Karin Smirnoff

 Corruption and greed in Norrland.


Adverse weather compounds the difficult rescue of Lisbeth's niece's mother in northern Sweden. In addition, the criminals have their sights on the grandson of Mikael Blomkvist as they try to manipulate the boy's stepfather, Henry Salo. The plot focuses on the control of wind power and mining rights in Gasskas. 


This 7th in the Millennium series has been taken over by a new author, the first female to tackle the complex character that is Lisbeth Salander. I enjoyed reuniting with the old, familiar characters and meeting new ones, especially the niece, Svala. I thought the narrative moved forward at a good pace and enough backstory was included to remind the reader of people and places that might have been forgotten.


Lots of action and great descriptions of the setting made this an excellent continuation of a series that I've always enjoyed. I look forward to more installments as changes come for both Lisbeth and Mikael. 


Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this e-book ARC to read, review, and recommend.

This is the 7th book in a series that needs to be read from the beginning, in order. 

Genre - crime, mystery, thriller, corruption
