Cards on the Table by Agatha Christie is a classic Hercule Poirot mystery, published in 1936. The novel revolves around a dinner party hosted by the enigmatic Mr. Shaitana, who boasts of collecting people who have “gotten away with murder.” During the evening, Shaitana is murdered while his guests—four suspected killers and four detectives, including Poirot—play bridge.

The novel is known for its ingenious plot, psychological depth, and unexpected twists.
