All three products were excellent at their core, but were not viewed as a family and needed to link together more cleanly. They all also needed a solid follow-up release to address some of the bugs and performance issues.

As well as being unusually visible, the British had the bad luck that their route took their aircraft directly through the zone in which 200 German night-fighters, already in the air, where waiting for them - the Germans had been forewarned as their radar had picked up the bomber force before it had even crossed the British coast. The conditions for the Germans were ideal - one pilot used only 56 rounds to ammunition to shoot down four British aircraft.(See Lord and Fox (1978)).

As Salander's trial approaches, the Section abruptly realise that Blomkvist's and Millennium's seeming lack of preparation are simply a cover story for their (successful, if now detected) campaign of misinformation. Clinton, having no idea what Blomkvist knows or plans to publish, arranges to plant cocaine in Blomkvist's apartment and simultaneously hire two members of the Yugoslav mafia to murder him; their intention is to frame him as a drug dealer and thus destroy his credibility. The former is easily undermined by the security cameras installed by Milton Security, which capture the plant; the latter requires the intervention of Figuerola, Andersson, Modig and several others from both Säpo and Milton. Blomkvist and Berger are spirited off to a Milton safehouse, allowing Säpo to further the misdirection by claiming that the two hitmen simply had the bad luck to stop for a meal at the same restaurant as the police officers.
