UK readers: the Apple Books edition of THE OLIGARCH'S DAUGHTER is on sale through the end of October!
No plot twists yet. No big reveals. Just the words that set everything in motion. 😈

These opening lines offer an early glimpse at the stories, secrets, and suspense waiting ahead. Which one would you read on from?

Nine years ago? That can't be right — it was only 2017!
9 years ago today was launching Merlin At War, my 3rd Frank Merlin WW2 detective mystery, at @TridentBooks in Boston in the company of great American thriller writer @JoeFinder.
Merlin At War is now The French Spy and is available on #KindleUnlimited in the U.K. and U.S.

Happy birthday Joseph Finder. His private investigator Nick Heller is hired to infiltrate a powerful family whose vast wealth hides something more sinister in this gripping thriller.
