Hi Gitta,

'Take a part in' is just an extended version of 'take part in'. It's just another way of saying participating in.

Hi,

I can't understand the meaning of the 'bother' in this sentence? Does it mean that the murderer wants to take part in the final meeting.

Thanks

'bothers' is equivalent to 'makes the effort' or 'take the time and trouble'.
