In Agatha Christie’s classic mystery, Cards on the Table, the wily Hercule Poirot is on the case when a bridge night turns deadly
Mr. Shaitana is famous as a flamboyant party host. Nevertheless, he is a man of whom everybody is a little afraid. So when he boasts to Hercule Poirot that he considers murder an art form, the detective has some reservations about accepting a party invitation to view Shaitana’s “private collection.”
Indeed, what begins as an absorbing evening of bridge is to turn into a more dangerous game altogether.…

Cards on the Table
One of Agatha Christie's very finest! Ariadne Oliver, Superintendent Battle, Colonel Race, along with Hercule Poirot make for a delightful murder mystery! So many interesting angles, in addition to Ms Oliver's narrative about what it's like to be a writer of murder mysteries are great fun! One can only imagine that Agatha vents a bit of her own feelings about her very own talent through the words of the amusing Ms. Oliver! 🍎
Poirot at his most ingenious!
Cards on the Table is Agatha Christie‘s most underrated novel. Very entertaining and a great read (or listen). Hugh Fraser does Dame Agatha proud in his performance for the audiobook.
Good!
It’s an alright book- although it is rather simple mystery
