Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the name of the missing child in Bloomburg?

Answer: Bobby Joe

At first, the local police suspected Bobby Joe to have drowned in the river since they could not find his body. However, after being alerted by Joe Quinn, Sheriff Jedroth suspected that Henry Kistle might have murdered the boy. He turned out to be right since the bones of Bobby Joe were discovered weeks later buried in a vat of acid.
2. Why did Montalvo fly to Bloomburg after hearing about Henry Kistle?

Answer: All of the above

Luis Montalvo first appears in "Stalemate" as a ruthless colonel from Colombia who wanted Eve to reconstruct his wife's skull. He eventually develops an attachment for Eve, which causes a strain on her relationship with Joe.
3. What do all of Henry Kistle's victims in Clayborne Forest have in common?

Answer: they all had a stake through their hearts with a note for Eve

After killing the sheriff, Henry Kistle decided to hide in Clayborne forest. He killed three men, all to send a message to Eve.
4. How did Bonnie describe Megan Blair?

Answer: the lady with the box

Megan Blair first appears in "Pandora's Daughter". She is a 'Listener' which means she can hear voices. She recently discovered that like her mother, she is also a 'Pandora', which means she can unleash the latent gifts of others. She was called upon by Venable to help find the remains of Bobby Joe. At first, Eve does not believe in her, but the two women eventually become friends.
5. What did Henry Kistle tell Eve about Bonnie to make her believe he killed her?

Answer: Bonnie had a favorite song about a wishing star

Henry Kistle was merely a suspect in Bonnie's murder but he almost made Eve believe he truly killed Bonnie when he mentioned Bonnie's favorite song. Joe later found out that the detail was mentioned in a newspaper article, and was therefore not proof that Henry was Bonnie's real killer.
6. What is the name of the little girl whom Henry Kistle used as hostage?

Answer: Laura Ann

Henry Kistle was able to kidnap Laura Ann by convincing her that he was her daddy's friend. He had intended to use her to lure Eve then kill her but she managed to escape and was eventually rescued.
7. Who killed Henry Kistle?

Answer: Eve

After wounding Eve, Henry Kistle decided to go after Laura Ann and finish her off. Eve, however, went back to the boat to get Joe's gun with which she shot Kistle several times.
8. After years of searching, Eve was finally able to find Bonnie's grave.

Answer: False

Apparently, Henry Kistle wasn't Bonnie's real killer, although he had slain many children.
9. In the end, Montalvo decides to be Joe's best friend.

Answer: True

Although Montalvo doesn't like Joe because he is jealous of him, he acknowledges the fact that they have a lot in common. After he is unable to persuade Eve to be with him, he decides that he wants to be Joe's best friend just so he can remain in Eve's life.
10. What happened to Joe at the end of the book?

Answer: He started seeing Bonnie

Although Joe loves Eve, he doesn't feel the same way for Bonnie since he never knew her and in fact, considers her as his competition and an obsession which will eventually be the death of Eve. He is considering giving up the search for Bonnie entirely. At the end of the book, however, he begins to 'see' Bonnie as Eve has for years - something which is implied as Megan's doing.
