Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. On what holiday weekend does the novel's action start?

Answer: Peace Day

Peace Day is an international holiday which marks the end of the Urban Wars in the early 2020s. It is celebrated on a Sunday in June. Lt. Eve Dallas and her husband Roarke are enjoying an unusual two days off in a row when murder interrupts their time together.

2. Who is the main murder victim?

Answer: Deena MacMasters

Karlene Robins is an eventual murder victim, but Deena MacMasters is the main victim. She was the 16 year-old daughter of Jonah MacMasters, a Captain of the New York Police and Security Department. Serenity Mimoto and Elysse Wagman are future targets of the killer. Deena was raped and murdered in her home on Peace Day weekend.

3. The murderer uses several aliases while stalking his victims. Which of the following is NOT one of them?

Answer: Dana Plato

Dom Patrelli, Drew Pickering and Denny Plimpton are aliases used by the murderer. Dana Plato was an actress from TVs 'Different Strokes' who fell on hard times and committed suicide in 1999.

4. What is the motive behind the murders?

Answer: Revenge for the death of the murderer's mother

The murderer's father convinced his son that the death of his mother, Illya Schooner, was caused by Jonah MacMasters and others who prosecuted her and put her in jail. The father was actually the indirect cause of her murder, and MacMasters and the others had no guilt in Illya Schooner's death.

5. What is Karlene Robins' occupation?

Answer: Real estate agent

Karlene Robins, the second victim, was a real estate agent, who was trying to sell the killer a ritzy loft apartment. She was to be married within a week of her killing. Her mother was Jaynie Robins, a child services agent, who removed the murderer from his mother's care when he was very young.

6. Eve Dallas plans to catch the killer at what event?

Answer: Deena MacMasters' memorial

Plans are made to apprehend the killer at Deena MacMasters' memorial service, but the murderer gets away due to police errors. As usual, Eve gets bashed in the melee.

7. Where is the murderer apprehended?

Answer: Serenity Mimoto's home

Eve Dallas determines that Serenity Mimoto, the 90 year-old mother of Judge Charity Mimoto, is the next victim. A careful plan to arrest the murderer in Serenity Mimoto's home, where he has been taking piano lessons, succeeds.

8. Who is the killer?

Answer: Darrin Pauley

Darrin Pauley was warped by his father, a career conman and all around bad guy. Darrin's father spun a tale of blame for the death of Darrin's mother. None of the story was true, but it caused Darrin to want revenge on those people whom his father had painted as responsible for Darrin's mother's death. Too late, Darrin learned the truth about his mother's death.

9. The killer's father is made to pay for his life of lies.

Answer: True

Eve Dallas arrests Vance Pauley, Darrin's father, and collects enough evidence to convict him of conspiracy to murder, fraud and bribery. It is sufficient to put him away for life.

10. Whose marriage takes place in the novel?

Answer: Louise and Charles

Charles Monroe, a former licensed companion and current sex therapist, is marrying Dr. Louise Dimatto, the 'Angel of Canal Street'. They are both close friends of Eve Dallas. Eve and Roarke and Mavis and Leonardo are, of course, married couples. Delia Peabody and Ian McNab are living together.
