الوصف

A BBC Radio full-cast dramatization starring John Moffatt as Hercule Poirot, with Stephanie Cole and Donald Sinden. Hercule Poirot, along with three other luminaries from the world of crime detection, is invited to dinner by the renowned London socialite Dr. Shaitana. Also on the guest list are four members of what Shaitana calls his Black Museum—a collection of murderers who have each succeeded in "getting away with it." After midnight, when the guests prepare to leave, they make a terrible discovery. Their host is dead in his armchair, stabbed in the chest. The four sleuths are thus faced with one murder and a quartet of likely suspects. Working both together and independently, they investigate the past of the Black Museum's finest in order to determine the most likely killer. Poirot finds that many distractions are thrown in his way, as he attempts to read the meaning of the cards which each suspect has placed on the table. SpectatorThe best Agatha Christie has ever devised.

This one left me torn. I gave it 3 stars, though I debated giving it just 2. The premise was promising—four suspects, one of them a killer, and four sleuths to analyze it all. But it took me a while to get engaged, and the ending didn’t sit right with me.<spoiler>The last 100 pages built a case around Anne Meredith... only for the final 10 pages to say, “Surprise! It was Dr. Roberts all along!” Poirot explains it all (of course), and the doctor confesses, but it felt too convenient. Like a sudden deus ex machina with no real evidence to back it.</spoiler>That said, Poirot and Miss Oliver were the highlights—Poirot is always a treat. Their charm and sharpness kept me going. And that final line? I admit, it made me smile. Also, I found the side plot between Anne, Rhoda, and Major Despard way more interesting than the main mystery.Not my favorite Christie, but not a total loss either.

Es de los que más me han gustado? Pues no. No sé si por todo el rollo del bridge o por sus personajes. No obstante, me ha interesado mucho todo el tema del análisis psicológico que se les hace sólo por como juegan sus partidas. Resaltar que los giros inesperados del final, no me parecieron tan inesperados, más bien sentí que la autora sólo había intentado marear con quien podría ser la persona que cometió el asesinato
