Witness for the Prosecution and other stories Synopsis

Collins brings the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, to English language learners. Agatha Christie is the most widely published author of all time and in any language. Now Collins has adapted her famous detective novels for English language learners. These readers have been carefully adapted using the Collins COBUILD grading scheme to ensure that the language is at the correct level for an intermediate learner. This book is Level 3 in the Collins ELT Readers series. Level 3 is equivalent to CEF level B1 with a word count of 11,000 – 20,000 words. Each book includes: • Full reading of the adapted version available for free online • Helpful notes on characters • Cultural and historical notes relevant to the plot • A glossary of the more difficult words • Free online resources for students and teachers at www.collinselt.com/readers The plot: When a rich lady is murdered, there is one obvious suspect. Even his wife says he is guilty – but then his lawyer discovers evidence that brings everything into question. Is anyone telling the truth? Accompanied by three other short stories: The Rajah’s Emerald, Philomel Cottage, and The Actress. Witness for the Prosecution is soon to be released as a major motion picture starring Ben Affleck.
