A Novel
From the New York Times bestselling author of House on Fire, a breakneck thriller that marries the dynastic opulence of Succession with the tense and disorienting spycraft of The Americans.
Paul Brightman is a man on the run, living under an assumed name in a small New England town with a million-dollar bounty on his head. When his security is breached, Paul is forced to flee into the New Hampshire wilderness to evade Russian operatives who can seemingly predict his every move.
Six years ago, Paul was a rising star on Wall Street who fell in love with a beautiful photographer named Tatyana—unaware that her father was a Russian oligarch and the object of considerable interest from several U.S. intelligence agencies. Now, to save his own life, Paul must unravel a decades-old conspiracy that extends to the highest reaches of the government.
Rivaling the classic spy novels of the Cold War, The Oligarch's Daughter is built for the frightening world we live in now.
What are you reading this week? (2024-10-31)
I am listening to the Story Collector By Evie Woods. I read The Lost Bookshop and enjoyed it. I am also reading the ARC of The Oligarch's Daughter: A Novel by Joseph Finder, which will be published in January 2025. It is very interesting, exciting, and good so far. I am halfway through the novel.

"A pitch-perfect spy novel—flawless pacing, richly drawn characters, and a plot that never quits. These pages practically turn themselves." —Karin Slaughter, New York Times and #1 international bestselling author
"Joseph Finder has been one of the undisputed masters of the thriller genre for decades, and The Oligarch's Daughter is among his very best!

"Finder is back! Breakneck action, compelling guy-next-door protagonist and riveting modern day geopolitics equal a truly breathless Joe Finder thriller, let alone a dash of romance and one of the best wilderness action scenes ever.

Joseph Finder's plan was to become a spy. Or maybe a professor of Russian
history. Instead he became a bestselling thriller writer.
Born in Chicago, Joe spent his early childhood living around the world,
including Afghanistan and the Philippines. In fact, Joe's first language — even
before learning English — was Farsi, which he spoke as a child in Kabul.
Finally, after a stint in Bellingham, WA, his family finally settled outside of
Albany, NY.
After taking a high school seminar on the literature and history of Russia, Joe
was hooked. He went on to major in Russian studies at Yale, where he also sang
with the school's legendary a cappella group, the Whiffenpoofs (and likes to
boast that he sang next to Ella Fitzgerald, an honorary Whiffenpoof). After
