4. The second case is a straight-forward employment background check on Solana Rojas. What qualification did Solana claim she had?

Answer: L.V.N.

L.V.N. stands for Licensed Vocational Nurse. We find out that Solana is not her real name but the name of a nurse at her place of employment who is a qualified nurse. She depersonalises this Solana by stealing her identity and referring to her as "the Other". She successfully creates a new identity and appearance for herself as the prelude to her plans going into action.

5. Kinsey is also employed in delivering legal complaints from landlords to their errant tenants. Which landlord is specifically mentioned as Kinsey's employer in this book?

Juanita named her cats Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy, and referred to herself as "Marmee".

8. After a struggle with a huge guy called "Tiny", Kinsey drives away with something belonging to him. What object is still in the car when she escapes?

Answer: His arm

9. Throughout the book Kinsey refers to her favourite meal. What is her favourite meal?

Answer: Quarter pounder with cheese

There is a continual comparison made between a quarter pounder with cheese and various foodstuffs that Kinsey encounters throughout the book. Generally the comparison favours the burger.

10. Near the conclusion of the book Rojas sends Kinsey something unusual in the mail. What was sent as a threat to Kinsey?

Answer: a tarantula

To be exact Solana sent her a Mexican red-legged tarantula in a padded envelope letting Kinsey know that she wanted revenge.
