"The Girl Who Played With Fire" is the second in Stieg Larsson's 'Millennium Trilogy.' It is as good as the first "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" but loses some of it fresh shock value as we already know the amazing Lisbeth (Noomi Rapace). The character is gripping and still captivates as she survives murderous relatives and memories of her brutal upbringing. Mikael Blomkvist (Nyqvist) is the publisher of Millennium magazine in Stockholm, and has a high profile job exposing corruption of important and revered Swedish elite. A young journalist approaches Blomkvist with a well researched thesis about sex trafficking in Sweden. It reveals that many in high offices abuse underage girls, and Blomkvist immediately throws himself into the investigation when the young journalist and his girlfriend are murdered. The plot is intriguing and many threads tie Lisbeth's sociopathic relatives into the mix. Both Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist deepen their strange compelling symbiotic relationship in their search for justice.
