The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons by Karen Smirnoff

Back of the Book

The untapped natural resources of Sweden’s far north are sparking a gold rush, with the criminal underworld leading the charge. But it’s not the prospect of riches that brings Lisbeth Salander to the small town of Gasskas. Her niece’s mother is the latest woman in the region to have vanished without trace. Two things soon become clear: Svala is a remarkably gifted teenager — and she’s being watched.

Journalist Mikael Blomkvist is also heading north. He has seen better days. Millennium magazine is in its final print issue, and relations with his daughter are strained. Worse still, there are troubling rumours surrounding the man she’s about to marry. When the truth behind the whispers explodes into violence, Salander emerges as Blomkvist’s last hope.

The new thriller from Swedish bestselling author Karin Smirnoff will submerge you in a world of conspiracy and betrayal, old enemies and new friends, snow-bound wilderness and corporate greed. Lisbeth Salander is BACK.

BOOK REVIEW

A Riveting Return to Intrigue: “The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons”

I recently had the pleasure of delving into “The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons: The New Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Thriller” by Karin Smirnoff, and I must say, it was quite the ride. While I thoroughly enjoyed the book, I do find myself wishing I had read the entire series leading up to it.

As much as I enjoyed this book, I must admit that not having read the previous entries in the series left me feeling like I was missing some of the deeper connections and character histories. Smirnoff does provide enough context for newcomers, but there’s a sense of richness that comes from fully understanding the characters’ journeys from the beginning.

All in all, “The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons” is a thrilling addition to the Lisbeth Salander series. If you’re a fan of intricate plots, morally complex characters, and a dash of Nordic noir, this book is definitely worth picking up. And if you’re new to the series like me, I’d recommend starting from the beginning to truly savour the full tapestry of this gripping world.
