As I continue my march through Agatha Christie's collected works, I savor each tale. That doesn't mean that I read the books slowly - often I rip through one in just a couple of hours of reading. I'm taking my sweet time by only reading a book or so each month or two, enjoying the ride. I don't know if I ever realized how many books she'd written.
This is a fascinating psychological study of the murderous mind of four different people. I am amused by the concept, but I know that I don't have the ...more

Cards on the Table – Agatha Christie

Audio performance by H. Fraser
I wonder if this Poirot mystery might be called "And Then There Were None –Light". Something of the underlying premise seems similar to me, but of course there is a creative Agatha Christie twist.
The strange, Mephistophelian, Mr. Shaitana invites eight guests to a dinner and bridge party. Four of the guests are imminent investigators and four are unexposed murderers. Mr. Shaitana expects to be entertained by this combinat ...more

This was a very good mystery. It really kept me guessing!

A good, cozy sort of listen/read. :)

A man gathers together four sleuths and four suspected murderers for a dinner party. One of the sleuths is Hercule Poirot. During the dinner, the host is murdered. Who did it? Even with all the false leads and lies, Hercule Poirot is able to figure it out, plus all the other murders the four have been accused of. Unfortunately he does not figure it out before another murder is committed.
This book would have been much better if I understood and played Bridge, otherwise it was still a good book.
