Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"There's Rosemary, that's for remembrance."
Published in 1945, Sparkling Cyanide is all about remembrance. It begins with six characters recalling the horrific death of Rosemary Barton, a beautiful but shallow young heiress poisoned by a cyanide-spiked glass of champagne whilst celebrating her birthday at a smart London restaurant. Rosemary haunts all six characters, each of them a suspect, throughout the story-and it's not until her killer is found and her ghost laid to rest that the group can move on, though they will never forget. With a distinguished cast including Peter Wight and Amanda Drew, this wonderfully entertaining production retains the thrill of Agatha Christie's clever, compulsive story.

Title from container.
A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatization starring Peter Wight and Amanda Drew.
In a Luxembourg nightclub, six friends sit down at a table laid for seven. In front of the empty place is a sprig of rosemary, as a remembrance of Rosemary Barton, who was murdered exactly one year earlier--by one of those present.
