SHORTLISTED FOR THE AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION'S "ADRENALINE" CATEGORY
"Any new novel by Joseph Finder is a ticket to reading pleasure, and this one is hands down his best ever."--Stephen King
"This is Finder at his finest--a perfect everyman-in-peril story, first building an ominous drumbeat of menace, then exploding in action and intrigue and triumph. As good as it gets."--Lee Child
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.

I ordered this book on a whim but was not disappointed. The story moves fast, is suspenseful and character development is not over done. The story is thought provoking and demonstrates how power can run amuck.
Overall this is a pretty good thriller. I will do my best not to let out too many spoilers. The tension is high many times, almost too many because it kind of drags it out. I am surprised by how many risks he is either takes himself or is expected to take. Sometime it is predictable, but there are some unexpected twists. The climax is a little too pat. So much for “intelligence agencies”. This epilogue contains some surprises. Overall it was an enjoyable read.
Well written. Fast paced. It was a very time worthy book based on what we know goes on in the Intelligence agencies.
This book was a banger most of the way through, but the last 25% it seemed as if the editing really suffered. Sloppy logic, a typo (only one, but still) and the ending was poorly executed with clunky prose that was better in the first half. Some events were just unbelievable but I won’t mention any spoilers. Joseph Finder is a good writer, and clearly did his research, but this book was too long for its own good.
