Book synopsis
The enigmatic and flamboyant Mr. Shaitana hosts a dinner party with a chilling theme, inviting four master sleuths and four individuals he suspects of having committed 'perfect' murders. Among the guests is the legendary Hercule Poirot, who finds himself entangled in a psychological duel when their host is found dead in the middle of a bridge game. With four detectives and four potential killers in the room, Poirot must dissect the minds of the survivors to uncover which of them has struck again. This unique mystery relies on the deduction of character and motive rather than physical clues alone.
