Resumen del Editor

A revolution in the Middle East has a direct and deadly impact upon the summer term at Meadowbank, a picture-perfect girls' school in the English countryside. Prince Ali Yusuf, Hereditary Sheikh of Ramat, whose great liberalizing experiment - hospitals, schools, a Health Service - is coming to chaos, knows that he must prepare for the day of his exile. He asks his pilot and school friend, Bob Rawlinson, to care for a packet of jewels. Rawlinson does so, hiding them among the possessions of his niece, Jennifer Sutcliffe, who is bound for Meadowbank.

Rawlinson is killed before he can reveal the hiding place - or even the fact that he has employed his niece as a smuggler. But someone knows, or suspects, that Jennifer has the jewels. As murder strikes Meadowbank, only Hercule Poirot can restore the peace.

A wonderful book for a hot day or any day!

I love Poirot's entrance in this book and all of the amusing conspiratorial cooperation between so many different figures of authority. Another multi-layered triumph,

Good Christie story, great narrator

An enjoyable Hercule Poirot novel, well worth a read. Hugh Fraser is, as always, an excellent narrator.

No Poirot until chapter 17.

Enjoyed it as usual with Agatha Christie but not enough Poirot himself. Still a good story.

Agatha Christie at her best

You can never predict where she's going. Most mystery fiction now a days are easy to predict.

Christie at Her Best

If you could sum up Cat Among the Pigeons in three words, what would they be?

Clever, engaging, surprising

What was one of the most memorable moments of Cat Among the Pigeons?

The unveiling of the mystery at the end was the best part. It was more difficult to discover the murderer although clues were fairly given.

Which character – as performed by Hugh Fraser – was your favorite?

He did a great job on all characters.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not one particular moment, but the characters' lives held my interest.

Any additional comments?

This Christie mystery is definitely worth the money.

Ahhhh...

Another wonderful Christie story. Full of twists and turns. And Hugh Fraser comes through with his usual style and flair.
Never a dull moment.
Thanks again to Audible for making this available.

A cracking Christie

A really exciting, intriguing, and well-narrated Christie. A bit more of an adventure story than her usual domestic, psychological murder plots, but a fun ride, with an engaging cast and a satisfying conclusion. Recommended!

Another, typically, enjoyable story from the best mystery writer, ever! Also Hugh Fraser is at his normally elite level of narration, perfectly matched to Agatha's stories.

Good story and Great Narration!

One of my faves! Christie understood so much about human emotions and behaviors, which is showcased in the Chadwick character and Julia and Jennifer (students).
