The West Hempstead Public Library will have a mystery book discussion on Wednesday, MAY 4 at 1 p.m. We will be discussing the first book in the Stieg Larsson triliogy, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared off the secluded island owned and inhabited by the Vanger family. There was no corpse, no witnesses, no evidence. But her uncle, Henrik, is convinced that she was murdered by someone in her own family. Disgraced journalist Mikael Blomqvist is hired to investigate, but he needs to find a competent assistant. He pairs up with computer hacker Lisbeth Salander - a tattoed, angry girl who rides a motorbike and uses makeshift weapons. Together they delve into the sinister past of this tightly-knit family. But the Vangers are a secretive lot, and Mikael and Lisbeth are about to find out just how far they're prepared to go to protect themselves.
To sign up for the book discussion, stop by or call the reference desk at 481-6591 ext. 22.
