I don’t see how Gottfried and Martin Vanger’s horrible crimes could have been kept secret for long. Under the deal with Blomqvist and Lisbeth and Drode/Henrik, the Vanger company was to contact and pay the families of the dead women. How would Vanger have explained the reason for this “hush” money? Surely the sordid truth would have come out somewhere in that process.
