You may not question her unless I am present. that the picture painted of her on the billboards is nonsense.?? Wadensj?? said. ??I need to ask some questions.

But he did recall that the man was introduced as the boss of the Section for Special Analysis. Jew-lover.?? He went back to her bedside and looked her in the eye. He had not gone back to the woodshed to tend to Zalachenko. so he was far from wide awake when he reached to answer it. ??Where is he??? ??He??s down the hall.

The other had screamed ??fucking nigger?? several times at the manager and forced him to lie on the floor. She cast an irritated glance at the display.

We don??t need to hide the fact that they concern playing down the Zalachenko affair in the media and so forth. She was even more impressed by her lawyer??s way of keeping cool under stress. where Clinton had already booked a room for him. They were sitting at a kitchen table in a white farmhouse called Gosseberga. Alexander Zalachenko ?C otherwise known as Karl Axel Bodin. and much of what he thinks he knows is wrong.

The woman nodded and showed him into the living room. colliding with the second nurse. the report would be printed out and scrutinized. and you don??t need a lot of muscle to fracture a jaw. but she summoned up a foggy mosaic of images from the woodshed and how she had swung an axe in fury and struck her father in the face. She was increasingly dependent on Fredriksson??s judgement in the light of her loss of confidence in Anders Holm. ??I miss you. Bj?rck??s prints were on the handle and the blade. I know roughly what??s behind it all. ??They??ll twist what I say and use it against me.M. He put on his dark glasses and turned up Bergsundsstrand on his way to the tunnelbana. ??That means that Zalachenko was murdered by the Section.?? ??Did he call you or did you call him??? ??He called me. Berger looked up and scanned the half-empty newsroom beyond the glass cage.?? ??Palmgren??? ??Yes. Anybody who could keep up surveillance inside the bustling N.

Do you have a girlfriend??? ??No-one steady. Jonasson met them in the emergency admissions area.?? ??So all the rumours about you two are nonsense.
He then engaged Thomasson on a couple of other matters
He then engaged Thomasson on a couple of other matters. ??I can take care of Ekstr?m. Was it Salander who had killed a policeman? The news item was sketchy. Since then not much has happened. ??Allow me to manufacture a scenario. which was probably because of her. V. He looked back at the clock. Erika. In that sense. He seemed to be interested only in how her muscles were working.?? ??I??m on my way.?? ??Good Lord. mug. I have to think about this.?? ??Can you prove that??? ??I can. Everything points towards a suicide. She was extraordinarily resourceful. this is Jonas Sandberg.57 with Clinton in tow. ??Where is he now??? Blomkvist said as they turned on to Kungsgatan. Can I trust you??? ??Of course you can. there are now attack alarms in four places inside the house.
Then he placed his hands gently around her neck and turned her head back and forth and to the sides a few times. Just as Figuerola reached the Bishop??s Arms. he must have chosen a simple password. and film roles. What are you looking for??? ??I want you to do a workplace report on Sahlgrenska hospital. Marita Ulfskog.?? ??And??? Figuerola said. But use your judgement. He thought of them as the Inner Circle. He turned off the alarm. In 1963 Gullberg was transferred from Counter-Espionage to personnel control. but he was adamant that it??s up to you to decide whether you tell me about it or not. Mikael Blomkvist. She put the appointment in her calendar and realized at once that she would have to change it because she had a major editorial conference planned for that day. The list was made up largely of the better-known reporters. Isn??t what??s-his-name.

?? ??And how are we supposed to give her the proper care here if we can??t have access to her records? The medical responsibility for her right now is ours. Criminal Inspector. 82 of whom were women. was going to spy on the spies? In August 1964 Gullberg was summoned to an afternoon meeting with the assistant chief of the Security Police.?? ??Good. We said that we were going to try this over the summer ?? well. They were summoned to Edklinth??s office and told of their assignment as well as the need for absolute secrecy. ??What do we do now??? Waltari said. Figuerola was out of luck. for using child labour. The follow-up care had been a marathon of agony.T. I??ve talked with the head of the legal department and fixed it so there won??t be any hassle there. Ricky.?? ??How are you??? ??I??m sick. ??You??re right. and crawled into bed. a madman.

He was not looking at her. and swung her legs over the side of the bed.?? ??Foreign policy??? the Minister of Justice said. The Prime Minister glanced quickly at Edklinth and then at Blomkvist. without back-up. but what I meant was that you pretended to know a lot more than you actually do.
Chairman Borgsj? appeared neutral.?? ??I always dress nicely.?? ??What do you think they did in the stairwell??? ??I don??t know. I am.?? ??Eriksson??? ??Unless you want to be editor-in-chief ???? ??Good God. My sense is that he??s more a useful fool being used by the Section. Instead she took out her Palm again and went on the Net. After that. Gunnar Bj?rck. I??m here on a work issue. no-one could fail to notice her biceps and powerful shoulders.?? On the reverse was a stamp saying that the picture belonged to ?hlens & ?kerlunds Publishers and that the photographer??s name was Julius Estholm. but after weighing all the options he concluded that the problem called for a drastic solution..?? ??I can assure you that it??s quite true. Suddenly she swayed.?? ??That??s O. that would have been one thing.

Then I get involved in something and don??t get time to do it again for a month or two. to lunch. She got back into her car and wrote down both the registration and telephone numbers for Lars Faulsson. she knew.I. a Mace canister and a pistol. ??But I haven??t been run over by a bus. holding out a hand that Zalachenko ignored. and he had no idea what they were talking about. it provided a good account of S?po as a structure as well as its primary concerns over several decades. which was the reason for his going and why Berger was to start several months earlier than originally announced. He ordered a coffee and a cheese and liver pat?? sandwich. He says he absolutely won??t discuss a person who is not only innocent but who also has had her rights so severely violated. go on ???? ??I have a man in the regular police who has spoken with Prosecutor Ekstr?m. There would certainly be headlines in the evening papers and it would probably result in an assault charge. The message consisted of a single line: Caf?? Madeleine. He crossed Sveav?gen on the viaduct at M?ster Samuelsgatan and went straight down to Klara Norra. You beat the police by several lengths when you tracked down Zalachenko and identified Niedermann. The text was short. ??Kurdo Baksi sends his greetings.?? ??Have you got any idea at all??? ??Ekstr?m claims that Bj?rck??s report and the correspondence with Teleborian were falsified.

It would take half a second to shove the broken edge into Zalachenko??s throat if he leaned over her. On the instructions of that goddamned blond monster.

Monica was already on her way and passing Drottninggatan. and began to check them off. ??We have to be of one mind. Cortez now kept an ashtray on his desk. and finally the preliminary investigation leader. when relations would once again worsen ?C which according to Gullberg was inevitable ?C absurd demands would be made on the Security Police and the military intelligence service; they would be expected to wave their magic wand and summon up well-placed agents out of a bottle. ??I??m going home.

Gullberg was the chief. where Bj?rck draws conclusions and makes recommendations. Could it really be possible??? ??I??m afraid it is. He instinctively disliked a situation in which private muscle was doing what a government department was supposed to be doing. I have documentation. She sounded surprised.
If so. and hurried off towards the editorial offices on G?tgatan. He was like everyone else. Blomkvist was asking her for permission to tell the truth in his book. She radiated a cheerful confidence. There??s a whisper that Nieminen has offered a big reward to anyone who could provide information as to Niedermann??s whereabouts. It had sounded logical at the time.?? ??I can??t help you with that. At the same time he was supposed to keep his eyes peeled for anyone who might follow Blomkvist. ??Where??? ??This afternoon I found out that Salander has taken on a lawyer.?? ??So ?? what else?

The stalker then took the opportunity to get into the house.?? ??What you don??t understand is that our shareholders bought stock in the paper because they want to make money.?? When she hung up she called the office and left a message for Fredriksson. If something went wrong. Berger turned and looked out over the landscape of the newsroom. Remember the Wennerstr?m affair.

Francke and P. He had taken off her shoes and her trousers so that he could bandage the wound to her hip. Do you understand??? ??Yes. but he was starting to get a line on how the letters should be expressed. Someone who was trying to cover Zalachenko??s tracks.?? ??And you did it because even you recognize that this is far more than just a scoop in your magazine. Gullberg did not have a clear sense of what Wadensj?? was made of. the names of today??s participants must not be mentioned in your articles. ??Teleborian??? Jonasson could not help overhearing the name. One advantage of working at Constitutional Protection was that she had authority to access almost any police report in Sweden that might have any connection to racially or politically motivated crimes. told them that she did not have time to wait. She had spent thirty minutes trying to do arm lifts.P. as it turned out. Ronald Niedermann. has developed its own text editing system.P.

She parked on Bergsgatan. Then he smiled. you have a number of loyal idiots working on your behalf. V. I should perhaps mention that I opposed that action. stood on tiptoe and unscrewed the three screws in the round white cover of a vent in the wall of Salander??s room. Nieminen went up the stairs and out of the front door.I. But. pushed open the door. And she liked giving in to threats even less. Good God. ??Welcome.
00.?? Eriksson did not answer the telephone. He was on the board of Zalachenko??s company. There??s nothing in her file that says why. It was 6. That??s the only reasonable explanation. Jonasson made two deep incisions all the way down to the cranium and peeled back the skin round the entry wound. ??We have to be of one mind. Some years earlier that post had been occupied by the notorious Colonel Wennerstr?m. we??ve landed in a constitutional crisis.I. ??Bring some coffee. When she went into Slussen tunnelbana Figuerola picked up her pace.?? ??I couldn??t stand sitting at home one more day. and a prosecutor intended to charge her with attempted murder and grievous bodily harm. Blomkvist waited.?? Edklinth sighed. I??m not going to steal your story. but it was mild and it was distant. You can bill us for five days. but just pottering. when she was due to appear at a school in T?by.P.
it sounds like she might need a criminal lawyer. a relic from the Cold War. The house was well kept and neat. Start by reading the Bj?rck report.

I can??t give you her name.?? ??They want to take you over to the prison in G?teborg tonight. The Section had its offices at Kungsholmen. Jonasson met them in the emergency admissions area. It??s your job to take care of Lisbeth??s physical and mental health.?? ??Same difference. He got out of the car and looked around. This is just the way it was in his day. Out of this somewhat esoteric bureaucratic debate. But it??s very simple to fake an apparently legitimate address.
But what really interested Salander were the forty-seven folders containing close to nine thousand photographs of explicit child pornography. Why Aftonbladet? The address was another fake.?? ??Sometimes you can be surprised. Then he took a taxi to Artillerigatan in ?stermalm. ??Even though crucial evidence is lacking.v Blomkvist put his laptop case on the desk. I asked if I could help her with anything. ??The police didn??t get hold of Bj?rck??s report by themselves ?? they got it from a journalist. And we did a thorough investigation of Bj?rck??s place. On this third visit Ekstr?m would be given answers to several of the questions he had asked earlier. i.?? Gullberg drew a series of concentric circles on his notepad. She had observed his ill-concealed enthusiasm when he sauntered into the Friday meeting. But if her car had been damaged on some random street in S?dermalm. He corresponded with Teleborian ?C but the correspondence in the form we??ve seen it is apparently a forgery. a dangerous psychopath. But that doesn??t mean he has to behave like an idiot. But it can??t go to the prosecutor until just before the trial. and defected to Sweden on Election Day in 1976. He was gone from 1985 to 1987. The Constitutional Protection Unit publishes an annual report. He used clamps to secure the opening. She looked up towards the roof of Bellmansgatan 1.
But we don??t have a damned thing on Nieminen. we have a journalistic responsibility. Lisbeth started digging into her past.?? ??It??s an inconvenience because you have to turn off the alarm every time you come downstairs. And then she saw a light through the trees and stopped. She supposed that her brain had not been too greatly damaged after being perforated by a bullet with a full-metal jacket. and he??s going to assist Ekstr?m. An Agent in Place contained so much inaccurate information about Sweden in the first chapter that he threw the book into the wastepaper basket. (No.?? ??Good. ??The rules of the game. Somebody must have made that decision. Then she jumped up and dug into her jacket pocket.?? ??A little too fast. ??You look tired. ??I understand. Trinity flipped open his mobile and dialled a number he had memorized. I??d really like to read the infamous report. Then gingerly he closed the door. She knew. there is that possibility. ??Where??? ??This afternoon I found out that Salander has taken on a lawyer. Swedish Internal Security.
He was dead before the ambulance arrived.?? ??Cancer??? ??He??s been carrying that gun around for the past six months. it??s Berger. Figuerola waited for forty-nine minutes before M?rtensson and his companion in overalls came out of Bellmansgatan 1. After Queen Myrina finally fell in battle. The next day it would take less. then Salander??s lawyer could instantly charge the Swedish government with violation of her constitutional rights. If it is. from right under the noses of the policemen circling around him.I. But he had stopped the bleeding from the wounds in her hip and shoulder in the simplest possible way. Inspector Erlander returned. Sandberg offered a considerably stronger lifeline. He asked if I liked being pierced and then left the room.?? ??Send out an A. A bit ironic. Two of the people living in the building have police records.?? Malm said.?? ??But don??t you understand what a scandal this could turn into? Are you just as barmy as Gullberg??? Clinton got to his feet laboriously. Francke and P. Is that understood??? ??Yes. It was absurd. She blinked hard a few times and got up to turn on the coffeemaker before she took her shower.

Figuerola slept late on Friday morning; she did not have time for her morning run.?? ??I didn??t give anyone permission to arrest Bj?rck.?? ??That certainly seems to be true in your case. Erlander knew from long experience that there were plenty of nutters out there. This was enough for Figuerola??s team to initiate the preliminary investigation and to set about enquiring whether the robbers had a connection to the neo-Nazi gang in V?rmland. however. It was a job she enjoyed.S.
He would then take the used batteries home and recharge them overnight. there are a number of hidden funds controlled by the chief of Secretariat and chief of Budget that I have no access to. at which time the Soviet Union was heading for collapse and Zalachenko had ceased to be a priority. The page was designed around a black-bordered portrait.?? ??I can??t.

That unnamed individuals in government circles had great confidence in him implied that he could count on their gratitude if he played his cards right. But every time she had decided to sleep at Blomkvist??s. One result of this increased workload was that Eriksson had had to contract several freelancers to produce articles for future issues.

Sonja. re: narcotics bust in S?dert?lje.30.?? ??I gather you??re still busy with excavations in Nykvarn.?? he greeted Edklinth.I. including the one who called himself SisterJen.

If this gets out. Now it was time to express herself more clearly. he took a zigzag route through the narrow streets of the old city until he reached the right address and knocked at the door of Black/White Publishing. The wounds in her shoulder and hip could wait until later with a compress on each. But we have fewer people.?? ??You started it. but it turned into a wearisome sort of arm-wrestling contest.

?? he said. If a group from the military or police starts pursuing an independent foreign policy. He should never have been allowed to have anything to do with Zalachenko.

He might even be able to point you in the direction of Niedermann.?? ??But if you get difficult about the fact that I??m going to use unethical methods. he would slip into an indolent state of indecision. He was careful to annihilate both Teleborian and the now dead Bj?rck. It was doable. What am I supposed to do??? ??I??m persuaded that you quoted him accurately. An Internet search showed that there was hardly any current literature on the subject. I have to be able to construct a completely new media image of you.

Discussions are ongoing as to whether to combine all the charges against your client under the jurisdiction of a prosecutor in Stockholm and tie them in with what happened here. that is.I. They drove to Nieminen??s place. Each day he had checked the address he had given to Criminal Inspector Modig. Nieminen has been released. ??You??ve got to be kidding.. I know so.
