The Way the Crow Flies is Ann-Marie Macdonald's first novel since her bestselling debut, Fall on Your Knees. It's 1962, the Cuban Missile Crisis is looming, and Jack McCarthy, a career officer in the RCAF, has just been assigned to the Centralia air force base in Ontario...

The writing alone is breathtaking. The story is a masterpiece. The characters are absolutely real.

Canadian actress Ann-Marie Macdonald has loosely structured this book around the conviction of a 14-year-old Canadian boy for the rape and murder of a 12-year-old girl in 1959, and the moon landings 10 years later. MacDonald weaves the discrete strands of her story together to illuminate the questionable moral behaviour of government and how this may impinge on far-flung citizens. It is also an exploration of, to paraphrase Isaiah Berlin's epigraph, how every choice entails an irreparable loss.

Crime Time: The Da Vinci Code
by DAN BROWN

Leonardo Da Vinci was a known trickster who liked to hide secrets in plain sight... often encoded within his artwork.

"Thriller writing doesn't get any better than this." (Denver Post)

"This masterpiece should be mandatory reading. Brown solidifies his reputation as one of the most skilled thriller writers on the planet with his best book yet, a compelling blend of history and page-turning suspense. Highly recommended." (Library Journal)

"Exceedingly clever. Both fascinating and fun...a considerable achievement." (Washington Post)
