Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Please note: The word clue when capitalized refers to one of "The 39 Clues." Otherwise it is just a minor clue to help find the real Clue. Now, on to the quiz! 14-year-old Amy and 11-year-old Dan Cahill did not find any hint to lead them away from Cairo at the end of "Beyond the Grave." What arrives at their hotel room and gives them their next destination?

Answer: A telegram

With thoughts of Madrigals still fresh in their head, the bellboy yelling "Telegram for Mr. Cahill!" wakes Amy in a panic. Thankfully, it is exactly as it seems. The message Dan receives tells them to go to the Cairo International Airport and find locker number 328. It is signed only by three initials - N.R.R.

2. Dan and Amy leave a note for Nellie, and then head out. At the Cairo International Airport, they open a locker to find three items visible inside. Which of these is NOT one of them?

Answer: A pair of cell phones

They are pleased to discover that the box contains two disguises with matching passports, a Visa gold card, a Russian guidebook, and two plane tickets for Volgograd, Russia.

Answer: The Holts

Eisenhower Holt and family track the Cahills from Egypt and meet them in Volgograd at a large monument called 'The Motherland Calls.' Amy and Dan agree to share the Clue if the Holts will help - they agree on a division of cities to visit.

4. Dan and Amy have three cities to visit, searching for clues before the 36-hour deadline given by the mysterious N.R.R. Which of the following cities do they NOT have to go to?

Answer: Kharkov

The Holts agree to search the two Siberian cities - Omsk and Magadan, while Dan and Amy take a train to St. Petersburg.

5. The clue that Dan found at 'The Motherland Calls' leads them to the mansion of Count Pyotr Shuvalov. What is its name?

Answer: Yusupov Palace

The Yusupov Palace, also known as the Moika Palace, is the site of the murder of Grigori Rasputin. He was first poisoned, then shot, then shot three more times, then clubbed in the head, wrapped in a blanket and tossed into the Moika river. The autopsy showed that Rasputin died of hypothermia.

Answer: Alexander Palace

Amy finds their second clue in St. Petersburg in Alexei's closet - an oval honey-colored stone inscribed with a pile of bones, the number 52, an arrow, and the letters M and S separated by a comma. A little research gives Dan the answer - The Road of Bones, where many Russian political prisoners died while part of Siberian labor camps. Dan and Amy contact the Holts and give them the information, so that they know where to go near Magadan.

Answer: Moscow

The clue gives Dan and Amy the means to enter another Lucian stronghold, where they finally meet the mysterious N.R.R. - Nataliya Ruslanovna Radova. She is the only daughter of the storied grand duchess Anastasia.

8. What is the 'room' that Dan and Amy must enter at the final city location?

Answer: The Amber Room

The Amber Room is over 150 feet of walls, and was built using six tons of amber. It was stolen by the Nazis in WWII, and then it disappeared. Nataliya tells Amy and Dan that within the Room they will find a Lucian Clue, as well as information about their parents.

9. The location where the 'Room' is stands on the site of the house where the Romanov family - the former royal family of Russia - was massacred. The Church of the Blood stands there now.

Answer: True

Nataliya sends Dan and Amy to Yekaterinburg in a stealth helicopter called 'The Shark.'

Answer: The Man in Black

Amy and Dan suspect that the Man in Black is a Madrigal, and they are utterly confused by his rescuing them in the Amber Room. Regardless, they know that they narrowly escaped death. Dan and Amy make good on their deal with the Holts and deliver the information on the Clue: one gram of melted amber.
