About

In Cards on the Table, Hercule Poirot is invited by the flamboyant Mr. Shaitana (a famous and somewhat feared party-host) to a private evening of bridge with a twist: four notorious criminals, each suspected of having committed murder, are guests at the occasion. Mr. Shaitana, who treats murder more like a game than a crime, has a “private collection” and wants to show off something—but Poirot has doubts about attending. 

 What begins as a sophisticated game night among the best players of bridge turns dangerous when one of the guests ends up dead. With four suspects who openly admit to past unsolved killings, Poirot must sort through deception, motive, and opportunity in a setting where everyone is versed in secrets. As the stakes rise, Poirot’s remarkable powers of observation and deduction are tested like never before.

William Dietrich (New York Times bestselling author): “When you think it’s Colonel Mustard in the basement with the crescent wrench, you owe the fun to Dame Christie.”

From the Daily Mail (London): “The finest murder story of her career.…Mrs. Christie has never been more ingenious.”
