The Girl in the £20m Inheritance Battle – partner of late novelist Stieg Larsson fights for share of fortune
• Bitter row over legacy of Swedish crime sensation
• Trilogy published after author died of heart attack
As the author of three dark and violent crime novels, Stieg Larsson was at home in a dysfunctional landscape of simmering resentments and rancourous family secrets. But the Swedish writer cannot have foreseen how, almost five years to the day after his death, the novels' success would lead to bitterness and paranoia in his own family.
