November Weekend Meeting

A book has been picked! 'The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo' by Stieg Larsson which was suggested by Emi. Plot Summary: A middle-aged journalist, Mikael Blomkvist, publishes the magazine Millennium in Stockholm. He is hired one day by Henrik Vanger, the aged former CEO of a group of companies owned by a wealthy dynasty, in order to chronicle the family history. His real mission, however, is to solve a cold case - the disappearance, some forty years previously, of Vanger's great-niece when she was sixteen. Blomkvist encounters "the old Miss Marple closed-room scenario" with all the wealthy suspects marooned on the family estate on an island; a village we grow familiar with, full of hostile locals peering out from behind their curtains". The real main character of the story is Lisbeth Salander, an asocial punk who has been victimized by authorities throughout her whole life. By accident she meets Blomkvist and the unlikely couple become another classic detective pair where the hunters become the hunted. (from Wikipedia) Notice the new time. It will be easier to find a room and you will have the rest of the day. I think having it at one cuts into everyone's lunch. Let me know if you have any feedback!
