Título: The black cat
Autor: John Milne
Editorial: MacMillan
The black cat is a book about a detective, his name is Salahadin.
He is an inspector in the Egyptian police and his job is to protect Egyptian antiquities. He is waiting for an archeologist called Mr Pearson but he doesn’t go to his office.
Salahadin goes to Mr Pearson’s home and he discovers three boxes. He opens them and finds a map and a mystery. He thinks there is something valuable in one of the boxes but first of all he must find a murderer.
Seven men die for an antiquity. It is a black cat.
Do you think is it made of gold and diamonds? Read it and find the answer.
At the beginning of the story Salahadin says:
“There was a reason for Pearson’s death. Was the Black Cat the reason?
There are too many questions, thought Salahadin. I must find some answers. The answers are in the missing box and it’s probably on its way to Beirut. I’ll be there tomorrow. That is one of the most important moments in the book because the main character decides to find the answers.
The book is very interesting. The Egyptian time is quite beautiful for us. We enjoy reading the chapters and we recommend to young people who are interested in detective novels.
It isn’t easy enough because of the new words and phrases in English. We have learnt a lot of new vocabulary related to art, new places and Egyptian culture.
