It was the match-up of the century: four sleuths--Superintendent Battle of Scotland Yard; Mrs. Ariadne Oliver, famed writer of detective stories; Col. Race of His Majesty's Secret Service; and the incomparable Hercule Poirot - invited to play bridge with four specially invited guests, each of whom had gotten away with murder! But before the first rubber was completed, the host was dead.
A very enjoyable Hercule Poirot mystery. There are more turns and curves than a mountain back-road. Hercule is in excellent form as is his associate Superintendent Battle. Simple, classic, 'eye-candy'.
I did remember this story from watching the TV show so there were no huge surprises but still, the storytelling is really great and you can barely put the book down.
I read this a few years ago. It is a Poirot mystery. Very good one I thought, an interesting puzzle with a twist at the end as Dame Agatha keeps us guessing between 4 suspects who commit a murder during a game of bridge. I don't recall which edition I read, so I picked the one indicated here because I liked the art on the cover.
