Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Where is Kay Scarpetta in the begining of "Unnatural Exposure"?

Answer: Dublin, Ireland

Kay was in Dublin doing some research on the "torso murders". There had been a few murders in Dublin that closely resembled murders that were now taking place in the USA.
2. What does Newton Joyce take from his victims in "Point of Origin"?

Answer: their faces

Newton Joyce's face was very scarred by acne and when he committed his murders he removed the victims face and their beauty. Then he tried to disguise this by starting fires and leaving hoping the evidence of the missing faces would be burned away.
3. Emily Steiner was killed by Temple Gault.

Answer: False

In the beginning of "The Body Farm" it was believed that Temple Gault was behind her disappearance and death but Emily Steiner was killed by her mother. Her mother most likely suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy, which is a disorder where the person suffering from it intentionally hurts loved ones (most of the time it's loved ones) in clever ways and then rushes them to the hospital and thrives on the attention.
4. In which book did Lucy first appear?

Answer: "Postmortem"

Lucy, Kay Scarpetta's niece was there from the begining in "Postmortem". She was staying with Kay when "Mr. Nobody" broke into the house and tried to kill Scarpetta.
5. In which month does Marino's birthday fall?

Answer: July

In "Unnatural Exposure" Marino tells Kay a story about watching Elvis on television and his dad coming in and shutting it off. He mentions that it was on his birthday in July. They did not mention a date however.
6. In what book does Jay Talley first appear?

Answer: "Black Notice"

When we meet Jay Talley in "Black Notice", he works for INTERPOL or International Police in France.
7. What is the name of the investigator in the book "Unnatural Exposure"?

Answer: Investigator Ring

I know I have had a lot about this book but that is because it is the one I have re-read most recently. Investigator Ring was a slime ball that was suspected in the leaks to the press about the torso murders.
8. In which book does Kay break her arm?

Answer: "Black Notice"

Kay breaks her arm when running out of her house after throwing formalin into the eyes of Jean Baptiste or "the werewolf".
9. Carrie Grethen was Temple Gault's lover.

Answer: False

Carrie and Temple were nothing more than partners in crime. It is alleged that Gault was not into women. But Carrie supposedly had a male lover while she was seducing Lucy.
10. What is the name of the spy shop which Carrie Grethen is connected to?

Answer: Eye-Spy

Scarpetta confronts Carrie here in "The Body Farm" and accuses Carrie of having something to do with Lucy's car accident.
