The novel opens with a revolution in the fictional Middle Eastern state of Ramat, where a cache of jewels is smuggled out by a departing prince. Christie weaves together espionage, hidden identity, and classic whodunit plotting, with Poirot appearing in the final third to unravel the mystery with characteristic precision.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Agatha Christie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55685190582612,"sku":null,"price":400.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/5972\/1556\/files\/cat-amongst-the-pigeons-agatha-christie-1600x1600-0714.jpg?v=1777653472","url":"https:\/\/www.alexanderdavidfinebooks.co.uk\/products\/cat-among-the-pigeons-agatha-christie-1st-edition-1st-impression-1959","provider":"Alexander David Fine Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
