Cards On The Table (hercule Poirot Book 15)

Mr Shaitana has the most unusual hobby: he collects criminals who have evaded justice.

Among his dinner guests are four suspected murderers. And, to match them, four experts in crime, including Hercule Poirot.

To understand which of them went on to kill their host, Poirot must delve deep into the psychology of each suspect. Which of them has the mind of a cold-hearted killer?

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
