About this listen

Murder is part of the curriculum at an exclusive school for girls in Agatha Christie’s Cat Among the Pigeons, as the intrepid Poirot sets out to bring a stealthy killer to justice.

As always a great book by Christie, the characters are well done and the narrative brought life to the story. It was a good listen!

I've suffered through robotic narrators and narrators whose attempts to "do" accents and pitches to suit different characters just end up being distracting. Hugh Fraser is the rare narrator who manages to do full justice to every character I this book, even Poirot who is most at risk of ending up as a caricature. I'm especially impressed that a man was able to pull off reading for such a huge cast of mostly female characters with such aplomb...especially schoolgirls. Bravo!

Excellent narrator
