Miss Marple has the ability to overcome any problem and this time is no exception. The main character in the book was Miss Marple, the old amateur detective. She had been solving many crimes over the years in her home village and near it. So she is hired to help the policemen again. She is an old lady probably in her early 70's.

and my French studies took a long break, until my one but final school, but there I met a teacher who was anything but good at French, and not only because she was actually a German philologist. She was just plain stupid and envious of my pronounciation. She said so herself. So how much do I know French? Just enough to sing a few songs, understand some simple written text and say a few sentences. Just enough to ask in correct French if the other party, please, speaks English. English comes as my third language, and actually I met with it first almost at the same time they began teaching us French. But it was awkward and I'm not sure they themselves knew what they were doing or why. I can recall we cut out some pictures and glued them to a book and wrote some words up. I also recall the pronounciation was simplified for us, for example, they taught us "gööl" as the correct way to say "girl" etc. They never mentioned that it's not exactly correct...
