Best-selling Author Joe Finder with The Oligarch's Daughter (spy novel)

  THE OLIGARCH’S DAUGHTER by Joseph Finder (from Harper) is already on the bestseller list. The hero, Paul Brightman, is a regular finance guy who by accident falls in love with an Oligarch’s daughter. The U.S. intelligence community traps him into spying on his father-in-law and his activities.  Combining the opulence of Succession and the spycraft of The Americans, the book is getting raves!

  While he’s written novels about the opiate crisis and big pharma (HOUSE ON FIRE), about #MeToo (JUDGMENT), about government secrecy (THE SWITCH) ,Finder didn’t really write about his area of expertise, Russia, for years. Why not and where did the idea for this book come from?

Is it really possible to disappear anymore, as the main character Paul is on the lam, living in New England outside of the grid?
