My Vingren is a well-regarded and award-winning Swedish journalist. Deemed by the media as “the real-life ‘Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,’” she is known for her in-depth investigations, especially into white supremacist networks. However, her latest journalistic pursuit is about to bring her into considerably dangerous territory. With the use of a fake profile, Vingren dives deep undercover online as a white supremacist and begins to thread together the extreme right’s campaigns to recruit and influence individuals, radicalizing them into a discourse of hate speech and xenophobia. But her ambitious embedded approach comes at a price.
