Femme fatale Quote by Donna Lynn Hope
““The spider's web: She finds an innocuous corner in which to spin her web. The longer the web takes, the more fabulous its construction. She has no need to chase. She sits quietly, her patience a consummate force; she waits for her prey to come to her on their own, and then she ensnares them, injects them with venom, rendering them unable to escape. Spiders – so needed and yet so misunderstood.””

![“[The Girl in the Spider's Web] can't be anything other than a sequel, but a couple of books have been skipped, so it is different, in that sense. It's really taking a very strong central character and thinking, how do you execute this? It's quite different.” quote by Steven Knight](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b43/steven-knight-2205_book_the-girl-in-the-spider-s-web-can-t-be-an_1257130.jpg)
