Thank you, #NetGalley and publisher, Crooked Lane Books, for sending this book
for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
If you want a book that you can’t put down, you have to pick up
#ThePatriotsDaughter by Brittany Butler. This book really makes you think, and
with the author being a past CIA agent herself, it makes the story come alive.
The story follows Ava Anderson. She’s a CIA officer who is smart and tough,
but she’s also dealing with some heavy family secrets about her mother. She
gets pulled into some serious espionage involving secret agents and a Russian
plot that could cause a lot of trouble back home. It’s exciting because it’s
not just about the mission; it’s about Ava trying to find the truth while
trying to stay out of trouble with her CIA boss.
The main character is Ava, she is a great lead because you really want to
root for her. One of the best parts of the book is her relationship with Ben,
a veteran officer she works with. The romance and the "will they or won't
they" tension between Ava and Ben adds a really nice spark to the story. It’s
not just all about the spy stuff; seeing their connection grow while they are
in the middle of a dangerous mission makes the book feel much more personal.
You also have the target, Konstantine, a Russian spy, who keeps you guessing
about who you can actually trust.
It’s easy to get into, and it's an action-packed story. The ending will
surprise you, and there are plenty of twists and turns to keep you on your
toes, but it never gets confusing. It’s just a solid, five-star thriller with
a great mix of action and heart. Highly recommended.
There will also be a sequel out in July or August 2026. I can't wait to read
the sequel, I'm sure it will be great, too.
