Written by Agatha Christie, Cat Among the Pigeons is a detective story in the Hercule Poirot collection. The novel is set in England, at Meadowbank. A death of the faculty sets off a series of events that eventually leads to Princess Shaista, a pupil at Meadowbank and cousin of the late Prince Ali of Ramat. Along with Jennifer, Hercule Poirot uncovers the mystery of the revolt in Ramat as well as the missing, priceless jewels. My favourite part of the novel is the part when Jennifer discovers the jewels hidden in the tennis racket and the continuous pushing of her door. In this section, the author uses minimalistic but descriptive language to convey a sense of nervousness and fear. I would recommend this book because it is interesting and filled with vivid, description and word choices.
