Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What plant is introduced in the first sentence of "Shadowland?"

Answer: palm trees

Since Suze was moving to northern California, she didn't think there would be palm trees there.

2. Why doesn't Suze like old buildings?

Answer: there are usually dead people hanging around

Since Suze is a mediator, who sees and speaks with the dead, she finds it highly annoying that there are ghosts everywhere pestering her. What about her social life?

3. "Dopey" is the nickname for whom?

Answer: Brad

Suze has a nickname based on the Seven Dwarves for all three of her stepbrothers. The oldest, Jake, is Sleepy. The youngest, David, is Doc. He is incredibly smart beyond his years.

4. My favorite character! What does Jesse secretly want to be?

Answer: doctor

This piece of information is disclosed in the fifth book. In the sixth, it comes to some use...except I'm not telling cause some people might not have read every book yet! (Pick it up right now if you haven't. I was sobbing by the end!)

5. Jesse kissed Suze for the first time in the "The Ninth Key".

Answer: False

The first time they kiss is actually in the fourth book. Thank goodness. I was waiting for that!

6. In "Reunion", who was the boy who killed the RLS Angels?

Answer: Micheal Meducci

Micheal Meducci was a geek Suze was protecting from the dead people whom he had murdered. Underneath the geek, however, was quite a fine body, according to Suze, Gina, and Cee Cee.

7. What did the tarot card in the second book have on it?

Answer: the ninth key

The ninth key was a tarot card that had to do with Suze's future that she had seen a few times. One was at a psychic reading Suze attended when she lived back in Brooklyn. Another was at Cee Cee's psychic aunt Pru's place.

8. Waht was the name of the psychic Suze met when she was twelve?

Answer: Madame Zara

Madame Zara had turned over Suze's card and on it was the ninth key, meaning people that could communicate with the dead.

9. What was on Suze's dad's shirt the day he died?

Answer: Homeport, Menemsha, Fresh Seafood All Year Round

Suze's dad died of a heart attack when Suze was six and living in New York City. He was the one to turn up as a ghost and educate her about mediators after he passed away. He turns up wherever she is a few times throughout the books, with advice and gossip and questions.

10. In "Shadowland", when Heather pointed at an engagement ring in a shop window, (an action that caused Bryce to break up with her) which shop was the ring in?

Answer: Bergdorf's

When Bryce broke up with her, Heather was extremely upset and went to drastic lengths to get him back. She even turned up at his house at New Year's and said if the parents wouldn't get him, she would shoot herself. Bryce was on vacation, so Heather commited suicide.

11. What is Paul Slater's grandfather's real name?

Answer: Slaski

Paul's father switched their last name from Slaski to Slater when Paul's grandfather started gabbing about mediators, convincing educators and scientists that he was not well and a "quack." Ashamed to be related (or named) like that, they gave themselves the name Slater.

12. In "Haunted", what was the name of Neil's brother, who was a ghost?

Answer: Craig

Craig had been a fantastic swimmer and sailer when he had been alive, but a freak accident on a boat one day when he hit his head marked the end of his life. He feels murderous feelings toward his brother, Neil, who survived on the boat that day.

13. How much money was Diego's belt sold for at the auction?

Answer: 1100 dollars

Paul had bought a belt that had belonged to Maria's lover, Felix Diego. He had bought it so he could go back in time to stop Diego from killing Jesse. If he succeeded, Jesse would live a full life in the 1800s and never meet Suze.

14. Father Dominic, when under stress or when frustrated, does what?

Answer: attempts to smoke

Father Dominic likes to keep a cigarette pack near, although he rarely actually uses it.

15. What is Jesse's real name, since Jesse was only a nickname?

Answer: Hector

Jesse was what his mom called him, like a pet name, or just a nickname.
