Sister Tattoo Quotes Biography

Source(google.com.pk)
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo's Prologue features an unnamed man (who we soon learn is Henrik Vanger) getting a framed, pressed Australian flower in the mail on his birthday, November 1st. He calls Detective Superintendant Morrell and tells him about the flower. Henrik gets one of these flowers every year on his birthday. He has a total of 44 now. But he and the detective can't solve the mystery of who exactly keeps sending them. This thought makes Henrik cry.
After the Prologue, a copy of the Vanger family tree is provided for the readers. The rest of the novel is divided into four parts plus an Epilogue. It moves from December 20, 2002 to December 30, 2003.
Incentive
Welcome to Stockholm, Sweden. It's a Friday in late December 2002. And it's cold.
Meet 42-year-old Mikael Blomkvist, a financial journalist, and managing editor of Millennium magazine, devoted to exposing financial corruption. Blomkvist has just been convicted of publishing libelous material about financier Hans-Erik Wennerström and has been sentenced to a hefty fine and three months in prison, which he'll serve some time in 2003.
Next we meet 24-year-old Lisbeth Salander, private investigator extraordinaire, and her boss at Milton Security, Dragan Armansky. Armansky and Salander are meeting with Dirch Frode, who hired Milton to investigate Mikael Blomkvist. Salander tells Frode that Blomkvist doesn't seem to be corrupt. He's a good journalist. But she still thinks Wennerström is crooked and that Blomkvist was set up. She agrees to investigate Wennerström for Frode. She tells Frode that Blomkvist is divorced with a teen daughter, and that he has a longtime sexual relationship with Erika Berger, editor-in-chief of Millennium. Erika is married but her husband, artist Greger Beckman, doesn't mind her relationship with Blomkvist. In all, Salander paints Blomkvist in a positive light.
Blomkvist and Berger meet at the Millennium offices, and Blomkvist convinces Berger to temporarily fire him, so his conviction will have less of a chance of hurting the magazine. Berger reluctantly agrees. Now that that decision's out of the way, Berger and Blomkvist spend the weekend together making love.
On Monday, Blomkvist goes over to Millennium, which is closed for the holidays. While he's there, he gets a call from Dirch Frode who says he represents Henrik Vanger, patriarch of the Vangers, a wealthy industrial family that owns the Vanger Corporation. The current CEO of the Vanger Corporation is Martin Vanger. Frode says Henrik wants to hire Blomkvist for something, but he can't say what. Henrik wants Blomkvist to come meet up on remote Hedeby Island because he's too old to travel.
On Christmas Eve, Salander takes presents to her 46-year-old mother in a nursing home. Salander and her mother briefly discuss the fact that neither of them have seen Salander's sister, Camilla, in a long time. Before Salander leaves, her mother mistakes Salander for her sister Camilla.
Blomkvist visits his ex-wife and his daughter, Pernilla, on Christmas Eve and then goes to his sister's place. At his sister's, he decides to accept Frode's offer and agrees to go to Hedeby Island. The day after Christmas he goes to Hedeby and meets Henrik Vanger.
Meanwhile, Salander goes to Hans-Erik Wennerström's apartment building. She checks out the electrical room and finds the wiring to Wennerström's apartment. Next, she visits her hacker friend Plague and buys an electronic cuff from him. (The cuff is a hacking device; Salander explains how she uses it in Chapter 28. It's implied, at this point, that Salander uses the cuff to do something to the wiring in Hans-Erik Wennerström's apartment.)
Back to Hedeby Island, Blomkvist learns that Henrik's great-niece, Harriet Vanger, disappeared 36 years ago. She started giving him pressed flowers when she was eight. After her disappearance, Henrik continued getting flowers in the mail. He's convinced Harriet was murdered by a family member, here on the island, and that her killer sends the flowers to torment him.
To persuade Blomkvist to investigate Harriet's disappearance, Henrik offers Blomkvist a big chunk of cash, and the promise of information that will allow Blomkvist to expose Hans-Erik Wennerström as a corrupt financier. Although he thinks it's a mistake, Blomkvist agrees to spend a year on Hedeby Island, helping Henrik write his autobiography and trying to find out what happened to Harriet. Erika Berger is extremely upset. She feels like Blomkvist is abandoning her.
On January 3rd, Salander gets a call from Dirch Frode telling her to stop her investigation of Wennerström. But, little does he know, Salander doesn't like stopping investigations once she starts them.
Consequence Analysis
Blomkvist arrives at Hedeby Island on January 3rd. Henrik gives him a tour and points out some of the major suspects in the disappearance of Harriet Vanger all those years ago. Harald Vanger is Henrik's 92-year-old brother, a hermit and lifelong member of the Nazi party. Henrik doesn't speak to him. Isabella Vanger is 75 years old, and the mother of Harriet. She was a hands-off mother with few parenting skills. Cecilia Vanger is 56, which means she was 20 when Harriet disappeared. She's Harald's daughter but has nothing to do with the guy. Henrik likes her. Her sister, Anita, lives in London.
Martin Vanger is 54, is Harriet's brother, and Vanger Corporation CEO. Martin built his current home in 1978 when he replaced Henrik as CEO. He's not married. Martin was stuck on the other side of the island (due to an accident on the bridge) when Harriet disappeared on September 24, 1966, so he was off the hook. Martin and Harriet's father, Gottfried, drowned in the lake near his remote cabin on Hedeby Island the year before Harriet disappeared.
During the rest of January, Blomkvist gets friendly with Martin Vanger and even has dinner at his house with Erika Berger and Martin's girlfriend Eva.
Meanwhile, Salander, who was in a psychiatric institution for several years as a teen, is getting to know her new guardian, Nils Bjurman. (Salander is one of a minority of adults in Sweden under guardianship. She was deemed incapable of handling her own affairs and thus assigned a guardian who is legally permitted to make decisions on her behalf, and who has all the legal powers she would normally have herself. How Salander got into such a mess is revealed in The Girl Who Played With Fire.)
Salander's old guardian was Holger Palmgren, and Palmgren helped Salander have a stable life by getting her a job at Milton Security. But Palmgren had a stroke in December and Salander believes he never recovered from it. Her new guardian, Nils Bjurman, has taken away Salander's access to her bank accounts. He has also asked her inappropriate questions about her sex life.
In February, Berger and Henrik make a deal and Vanger Corporation becomes a partner with the financially-hurting Millennium. Blomkvist is mad because Henrik and Erika have been plotting the deal for weeks behind his back. Making the deal without him is Erika's revenge on Blomkvist for leaving her alone in Stockholm to deal with Millennium. But Blomkvist soon gets over his anger and instead gets deeper into the mystery of Harriet. He's also seduced by Cecilia Vanger, and they become lovers. To Cecilia's dismay, he prepares to begin his prison term and work on Harriet's case while he's in the clink.
