The Companion - Discussion

I had read the text "The Companion" writed of Agatha Christie.

The text was quite complicated but I'd think I did get the most of it, it was about an old women and she was giute smart and a good listener. She and her friends should tell historys to each others and a man named Dr Lloyd should start and he telled a creepy history about two ladies he met in his holiday named Miss Durrant and Miss Barton.

Suddenly Miss Durrant drowned when she swim a bit out with his companion Miss Barton. A fisher pick them up and drive them to the beach and left over Miss Durrant to Dr Lloyd and he take a look on her and could summarize that she was perfectly dead.

But Dr Lloyd realize that this wasn't an accident, it was murder and Miss Barton had depressed the head of Miss Durrant under the water and drowned he but the witnesses' eyes, it seemed that Miss Burton had tryed to help Miss Barton. Now the listeners was more interested and discussed about the motive of the murder.

That was very complicated to understand but I think it has wirt money to do. Ok lets moving on in the text, a few days later it seems like Miss Barton had done suicide. She had leaved her clothes and a letter that said something like she had to go the same way as Miss Durrant on the beach.

But the wierd thing was that no one find the body. Everybody around the table was discussing about wat happened but Miss Marple said that it must be so that Miss Barton bluffed and did not do suicide, that was just a way to hide her escape and Miss Marple to thinked out that she did escaped to Australia. The other knew that she must be right, Miss Marple to get motive of the murder but that was very hard to understand exactly and I will not guess.


That was what I find out in the text, hoped you understand to and please come with comments.
Bye!
