Marple : A Pocket Full Of Rye

Agatha Christie, the Queen of Crime, is introduced to English language learneby Collins. The most widely read novelist of all time, in every language, is Agatha Christie. Collins has recently created an English language learning version of her well-known detective stories. These thoughtfully modified versions are condensed, and the language is geared towards upper-intermediate students (CEF level B2). Each reader comes with a CD that reads the modified novel, helpful character notes, historical and cultural context that is important to the plot, and a glossary of the more challenging terminology. The head of a financial empire, Rex Fortescue, was enjoying a cup of tea in his office when he passed away painfully and unexpectedly. Grain was discovered in the victim’s pockets when the police searched them. One of the staff is familiar to Miss Marple.
