La Isla: Misterio en España is a Spanish graded reader for lower-intermediate learners, A2-B1 CEFR, set in Deià , Mallorca. Built on comprehensible input, it includes a bilingual Spanish-English wordlist, speaking prompts, cultural notes, and translation exercises.
John and Helen move from London to Mallorca to begin a peaceful new life. Their house in Deià seems perfect: beautiful views, orange trees, and the quiet charm of the Mediterranean.
Then they find a dead man in the garden.

- Bilingual Spanish-English wordlist
