Cat Among the Pigeons

By Julia Golding

Book Overview

MYSTERY, DISGUISES, AND A FIGHT FOR FREEDOM. The second episode in the CAT ROYAL ADVENTURE series plunges readers into the underbelly of London in a mission for justice. Pedro's old slave master wants him back, but his friends on Drury Lane won't give him up without a fight. Disguised as a boy, Cat enters an aristocratic boarding school and scales the heights of London society before joining a street gang to probe its depths, all to secure the freedom of her friend. Like THE DIAMOND OF DRURY LANE, CAT AMONG THE PIGEONS features mysteries, theatrical spectacles, the evil Billy "Boil" Shepherd, and, of course, the irrepressible Cat, who never fails to stir up trouble and save the day wherever she goes. Coming in Spring 2009, Cat travels to Paris during the French Revolution in DEN OF THIEVES. ?

Best Book Ever

This story of Cat and her friends is even better than the first. From living at a boys school to fighting slavery and saving one of her best friends Cats life is about to get very interesting.

Great First Mystery for Spunky Girls

Love the series. Cat is a vivacious, street-smart heroine and the theater/historical facts are integrated effortlessly. Told from our heroine's perspective, this book is a great pick for the tomboy.
