Episode #189
Cards on the Table - Avengers Assemble!
What happens when Agatha Christie brings together four detectives from her previous books to solve one murder? Apparently, mystery magic. For Episode 189, Sam and Hannah are tackling Cards on the Table , the 15th book in the Hercule Poirot series. But Poirot isn't solving this case alone! Christie assembles four detectives from her earlier works, giving us a crossover event worthy of the Avengers. With four very different investigative styles in the same room, we get to see each detective's personality, strengths, and quirks shine. How do their methods compare? Who brings something unique to the investigation? And why don't more mystery authors bring their detectives together like this? Sam and Hannah discuss the mystery, the detective dynamics, and whether Cards on the Table proves that detective crossovers deserve to be their own literary universe.
