Stieg Larsson, a famous author, whose Girl With The Dragon Tattoo book and sequels achieved global success.  The Hollywood movie adaptation of his book grossed over $232 million worldwide.

Larsson died unexpectedly at the age of 50 from a heart attack, and without a will.  Stieg Larsson was never married and had no children.  He did have a live-in girlfirend, Eva Gabrielsson, for 32 years.

This sparked a huge lawsuit between his live-in girlfriend and his brother and father, whom the girlfriend claims were not close with Larsson.  The family members inherited his vast estate and sued because the girlfriend has possession of a laptop with an unpublished fourth manuscript.
