Murder at a luxury hotel… Paging Miss Marple…
It sounds like an Agatha Christie mystery, doesn’t it? A five-star hotel in Bangkok, six wealthy Vietnamese, including two with American passports–and all six left for dead in one room (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/deadly-brew-cyanide-laced-tea-kills-six-people/).
All six appear to have been poisoned, including the poisoner, whichever one of the six it was. Traces of cyanide have been found in the drinking glasses. Not a good look for the Grand Hotel Erewan.
Police have pretty much reconstructed the crime, which, they say, involved a very large debt that couldn’t be paid. But there’s still a bit to be cleared up. Like, for instance, why were those six people all in the same room? It sounds like an event of some kind. I can’t help wondering if it was the poisoner who invited them all up to his or her room on some pretext and then poisoned everybody.
But maybe I’ve read too much Christie.
