The Secret of Chimneys — A Bilingual Edition (English → Indonesian)","state","published","contactAuthorMethod","email","aboutText","

Read Agatha Christie's The Secret of Chimneys in the original English, with every sentence immediately followed by its Indonesian translation. Each English sentence is numbered word-by-word, with a mini vocabulary list right there on the page — English word, Indonesian translation, and a short English gloss — so you never need to put the book down to look something up. No flipping to a glossary in the back. No guessing which word means what. Just read.

The Indonesian translation is faithful and word-for-word, staying close enough to the English that the numbered vocabulary maps clearly between both languages. Indonesian has no grammatical gender, no verb conjugation, and no tense marked on the verb itself — time is signaled by separate words instead. This makes Indonesian one of the more approachable languages to read alongside English, though its extensive prefix/suffix system can reshape a root word substantially; the vocabulary list always shows the underlying root so the connection to the English word stays clear.

This is the complete, unabridged text of The Secret of Chimneys — all 31 chapters. The front of the book includes an Indonesian cheat sheet covering pronunciation, basic grammar, function words, and mystery and intrigue vocabulary — everything a first-time reader needs to start Chapter 1.
