In 1935, shortly after Murder on the Orient Express was published, the body of a Romanian fashion designer named Maria Farcasanu was found near the tracks of the Orient Express in Admont, Austria. She had been traveling from Bucharest to Paris, and her purse was discovered 5 km from the body. Her husband stated she would have been wearing a silver fox fur stole that was not found with the body. Although the death may have looked like a suicide or accident initially, these facts led the police to suspect foul play.
Three days following the discovery of the body, Farcasanu’s baggage was located in a check room in Basel, Switzerland, and all items of value had been removed. Police originally suspected Trajan Theodorescu, a swindler who targeted female Orient Express passengers, but he had an alibi during Farcasanu’s trip. Pawn brokers were asked to be on the lookout for the fox fur stole and a pricey wristwatch missing from her baggage.
