Scotiabank Giller prize-winner Linden MacIntyre is back with a timely and gripping novel we just couldn't put down.

Working on a story about homegrown terrorism, Cyril finds an unlikely connection to his father, who went missing and has just been declared dead. As Cyril digs into the mystery of his father's death, his research takes him as far as Lebanon and as close as The Only Café in Toronto, where he begins to learn who his father was—and why he disappeared.

The Only Café (Random House Canada) by Linden MacIntyre, $34.
