About this listen
Part of a new look for Hercule Poirot for the 21st Century.
Read by Hugh Fraser, who plays Captain Hastings in the popular TV series.
Mr Shaitana was famous as a flamboyant party host. Nevertheless, he was a man of whom everybody was a little afraid. So, when he boasted to Poirot that he considered murder an art form, the detective had some reservations about accepting a party invitation to view Shaitana’s private collection.
Indeed, what began as an absorbing evening of bridge was to turn into a more dangerous game altogether…
©1936 Agatha Christie Mallowan (P)2003 HarperCollins Publishers Ltd, London UKCritic reviews
"The finest murder story of her career...Mrs Christie has never been more ingenious." (Daily Mail)

Elegant crime story
As usual Agatha rules! Four people, each of them could commit this crime... Interesting plot, good psychological portraits of characters. Delicious as good coffe!

Intelligent plot, awesome narration
What made the experience of listening to Cards on the Table the most enjoyable?
This was my first Agatha Christie and I am glad I made this choice. I am determined to listen to more of her. The best part of the entire listening experience was the narration. Hercules, Battle, Anne, Doors, Lorrimer, Shaitana, or Mrs. Oliver - all of them came out so live as if it's all happening in real.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Cards on the Table?
Cold character Anne
Which scene was your favorite?
Meeting between Mrs. Lorrimer and Poirot where she confesses the murder.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The witness of the window cleaning agent.
