This is an unadapted text of the famous romantic novel by Sarh Jio "The Last Camellia". It's a romantic and suspenseful tale about two women whose destiny is bound across the years. On the eve of World War II, the last surviving specimen of a camellia plant known as the Middlebury Pink lies secreted away on an English country estate. Flora, an amateur American botanist, is contracted by an international ring of flower thieves to infiltrate the household and acquire the coveted bloom. Her search is at once brightened by new love and threatened by her discovery of a series of ghastly crimes. More than half a century later, garden designer Addison takes up residence at the manor, now owned by the family of her husband, Rex. The couple's shared passion for mysteries is fuelled by the enchanting camellia orchard and an old gardener's notebook. Yet its pages hint at dark acts ingeniously concealed. If the danger that Flora once faced remains very much alive, will Addison share her fate? Reading the original text will help readers to advance their English language skills, and the Russian translation will help to solve any difficulties. The book provides exercises at the end, so the readers could practice their English language skills and make the understanding of the text easier. It will be interesting and useful to everyone who knows and learns English with a teacher or independently.
