The correct answer is: E. No error
The sentence is grammatically correct. The verb “was” agrees with the subject “I” in the simple past tense. The subordinating conjunction “when” introduces a clause that describes the time when the action of the main clause took place. The past participle “heard” is used as an adjective to modify the noun “that.” The past participle “left” is used as an adjective to modify the noun “country.” The prepositional phrase “without informing anyone of us” modifies the verb “had left.”
