Pierre La Manche is Tempe's boss in Quebec, Skinny Slidell is a rather obnoxious sounding police officer in 'Bare Bones' and I made up the other.

Answer: escorting a prisoner

He was escorting a man named Remi 'Pepper' Petricelli from the Quebec chapter of the Hells Angels, with reported ties to organised crime. For a while it is considered that his presence on the plane could be a reason for its crash but it is eventually proved to be coincidence.
9. What was eventually determined to be the cause of the crash?

10. Another part of this story revolves around the unidentified body part, and some local murders. What is the name of the club those responsible belong to?

Answer: The Hellfire Club

Polyphemus is reputed to have captured Ulyesses and eaten his crew. Prentice Dashwood was a character in the story who was descended from the creator of one of the most famous Hellfire Clubs, Sir Francis Dashwood. These clubs become big in 18th century Britain.

They were supposed for 'quality people' who wanted to indulge in immoral acts. The clubs are still shrouded in mystery today and while it is rumoured many high profiled people were associated or attended, these associations cannot be proved, neither can what actually occurred within their bounds.
