The Helsinki Affair by Anna Pitoniak
English | 2023 | Mystery & Thriller

IT’S THE CASE OF AMANDA’S LIFETIME, BUT SOLVING IT WILL REQUIRE HER TO BETRAY ANOTHER SPY—WHO JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE HER FATHER.

SPYING IS THE FAMILY BUSINESS. Amanda Cole is a brilliant young CIA officer following in the footsteps of her father, who was a spy during the Cold War. It takes grit to succeed in this male-dominated world—but one hot summer day, when a Russian defector walks into her post, Amanda is given the ultimate chance to prove herself.

The defector warns of the imminent assassination of a US senator. Though Amanda takes the warning seriously, her superiors don’t. Twenty-four hours later, the senator is dead. And the assassination is just the beginning.

Corporate blackmail, covert manipulation, corrupt oligarchs: the Kremlin has found a dangerous new way to wage war. Teaming up with Kath Frost, a fearless older woman and legendary spy, Amanda races from Rome to London, from St. Petersburg to Helsinki, unraveling the international conspiracy. But as she gets closer and closer to the truth, a central question haunts her: Why was her father’s name written down in the senator’s notes? What does Charlie Cole really know about the Kremlin plot?

The Helsinki Affair is a riveting, globe-trotting spy thriller—but this time, with a refreshing female-centric twist. Perfect for fans of John le Carré and Daniel Silva, this book introduces Pitoniak as a singular new talent in the world of spy fiction.

  1. Hi Figaro;

    Its that time of the year! Happy US Thanksgiving, although I think its better to be celebrated in October, like we do in Canada!

    Is it possible to get the titles of the short list of the Giller Prize from up here in Canada?

    If not, can we get the titles of the short list for the Booker Prize?

    Thank you in advance.

    • Happy Thanksgiving James, I can celebrate it in october as well, 2 times in a year
      I’ll try for both Giller Prize and Booker Prize lists in upcoming days.
      Thank you.

      • Thanks for all you do, Figaro!

        I guess November is a better time to dunk a turkey into boiling oil; it’s cooler then, but the wife still roasts ours in an oven, then we ‘enjoy’ the leftovers for two weeks!
        We don’t have any pilgrims here, but we have Indiginous people from whom we ursurped the land for the English crown.

        • Good to hear that, I hope you’re enjoying the life.
          December started and it’s my favroite month of the year. It’ll be me, books and netflix almost the whole month 😀
