Floor plan If nobody left their oom through their main room door, then it had to be through a window or patio door. The key on the floor plan ‘shows that all the upper-floor rooms have fixed windows. However, the ground-floor rooms have sliding doors (just lke the victim's) and the guests staying there could have left their rooms undetected. Therefore, the killer was in one of these rooms: 1,2, or 8. These three suspects had the opportunity, But which one of them may have had a motive to kill the victim?

We were in a relationship on and off and even started a business together. Unfortunately, the business wasn't doing so well and the debts kept piling up. Victor and ny relationship also turned really sour and he would sonetimes beat me black-and-blue. So, one day I just ran away and have been ciipping towne doing odd Jobe for the past year. I don't know how he found me here, but he did. At first, he said he'1L forgive me if I help pay back the loans, but then he started behaving violently, like he always would when we were together. I realized he's never going to to stop chasing mo down ac long as he's alive, and so I decided to get rid of him forever. That night, I snuck out of ay patio door and went to his room and stabbed him as he slept. He wae an avful man and I'm not sorry he's gone.
