Excellent resource but missing the Agatha Christie story (Red)

Hello, just to let you know that the story 'Red' can be found in the bundle as the Word document 'Lesson 2 - The Use of Language'. It isn't an Agatha Christie story, it's just a short story that has lots of clues and red herrings to give students an idea of what to look for in crime fiction and when it is that a writer is trying to throw them off the scent. Hope this helps.
