O último libro que lin
O último libro que lin chamábase "A moza do tren" e contaba unha historia sobre unha moza que sempre ía no mesmo tren a traballar ao a Londres e observaba a unha parella a través das fiestras do tren. E un día notou que non estaba a moza que observaba sempre.Resultou que a moza resapareceu desapareceu e pensaban que a matou matara o seu mozo. Pero non era así!
A moza do tren sempre estaba borracha bébeda xa que tivo unha mala experiencia co seu ex marido. E, ademais, o seu ex marido vivía no mesmo pobo que a moza desaparecida. Quen a matou??

Notes:
"ao Londres" is a tough one, because in Galician we sometimes use that form in an affective way, but generally speaking you say "a Londres" 9 times out of 10.
"observaba unha parella", this is a minor difference between Spanish and Galician, we don't put the preposition "a" when the direct object is a person / people. I actually find the Galician rule clearer (no preposition with the direct object) than the spanish (no preposition with the direct object, unless it refers to people).
"pensaban que a matara", the sentence was correct as you put it, at least grammatically, but I feel this to be more correct, since you're talking in a past tense (pensaban) about an action that was already past at that moment.
"bébeda", I'm not 100% sure that "borracha" is not included in the dictionary, but we say "bébedo/bébeda" in Galician.
A brilliant job with this text, by the way!
