Poirot faces an intriguing challenge after he accepts an invitation to the fabulous home of a flamboyant socialite. His wealthy and exotic host Shaitana, a man fascinated by murder, has assembled an eclectic mix of guests who embark on an enjoyable evening of card playing. But the party turns into a murder investigation when Shaitana is found dead. The four invited investigators - including Poirot himself - look for clues in the cards as they set out to discover which guest is the killer. (iTunes)

Such a quite classic episode, which is quite pleasantly spiced up by the fact that there can be a killer here, as a large number of people who gather at a party have actually killed someone in the past. Poirot is unsure, but of course, he will solve it. These new episodes have an interesting, creamy color palette, which I really like.

Were it not for a few of Hercule's divine escapades and smug snorts, this would be a rather boring salon detective story with crazy motivation and a troubled ending. Even though I didn’t want to, most of the time I choked on the faint characters and affected conversations. I think that amongst the stories on the level of "a party at a weirdo’s house with murder instead of dessert", this one is desperately average. Half a star for the traditionally great Suchet.
