The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest: Stieg Larsson

This was the final book in the Lisbeth Salander series. Lisbeth is in the hospital after being brutally beaten at the end of the last book. She survives brain surgery and still fights for justice while her father recovers in the same hospital. While Lisbeth prepares for her trial, her father is murdered and her half brother goes into hiding. Around the same time Blomkvist moves into Lisbeth's apartment (which I didn't understand) and Berger gets a new job. Lisbeth is eventually freed and released from court appointed guardianship. Blomkvist finds another lover, and Berger, who was being harassed at work, pinpoints the jealous man from her past as the perpetrator with Lizbeth's help. Lizbeth finds her half brother at the end and ties everything up so neatly that by the end of the book all the bad guys are either dead, or arrested.
