Stieg Larsson: The Man Who Played with Fire

Best known as the author of the Millennium trilogy, a brooding and gritty series of crime novels which introduced readers to the complex character of Lisbeth Salander and collectively sold more than 80 million copies worldwide, late Swedish writer Stieg Larsson was actually also an investigative journalist. He dedicated his life to studying and exposing the dark world of xenophobia and anti-democratic political movements – an endeavor that obviously has increased relevance today.
