Stieg Larsson wrote the novels at night, apart from his job at the Expo magazine. He started writing in 2001 and enjoyed it so much that he didn’t make contact with a publisher until he had two finished novels and had a third one under way.

In an interview short before his death, Stieg Larsson described his writing as his “pension insurance”. (from http://www.stieglarsson.com)

1. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo The Girl Who Played With Fire (2005)
   Aka Män som hatar kvinnor 
   Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared off the secluded island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger family. There was no corpse, no witnesses, no evidence. But her uncle, Henrik, is convinced that she was murdered by someone from her own deeply dysfunctional Vanger clan. Disgraced journalist Mikael Blomqvist is hired to investigate.

2. The Girl Who Played With Fire (2006)
   Aka Flickan som lekte med elden
   Mikael Blomkvist, crusading journalist and publisher of the magazine Millennium, has decided to run a story that will expose an extensive sex trafficking operation between Eastern Europe and Sweden, implicating well-known and highly placed members of Swedish society, business, and government.
   
   But he has no idea just how explosive the story will be until, on the eve of publication, the two investigating reporters are murdered. And even more shocking for Blomkvist: the fingerprints found on the murder weapon belong to Lisbeth Salander—the troubled, wise-beyond-her-years genius hacker who came to his aid in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and who now becomes the focus and fierce heart of The Girl Who Played with Fire.
   
   As Blomkvist, alone in his belief in Salander’s innocence, plunges into an investigation of the slayings, Salander herself is drawn into a murderous hunt in which she is the prey, and which compels her to revisit her dark past in an effort to settle with it once and for all.
