Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Weelock

The Scottish settlers picked this spot that reminded them of Scotland to build their new home in America. They were charmed by what they called a "Wee Loch," hence the name "Weelock."

2. One of the main characters is Cam Macdonald. What does he do for a living?

Answer: police chief

What Cam really wanted to be was a travel writer. He traveled to Scotland, but came back to be police chief after his father, Ian, died. He keeps travel magazines in his desk at his office.

3. Cam's wife, Allie, runs the local flower shop. Who is her new assistant?

Answer: Mia

Mia Townshend is a nomad who travels all over the world, doing little odd jobs in different places until she gets bored there.

4. Who did Jamie kill?

Answer: Maggie

Jamie killed his wife, Maggie, who was terminally sick from breast cancer. She was so sick she asked her husband to kill her. He didn't like the idea, but he loved her so much he was willing to do what she wanted.

5. Who does Cam hire as Jamie's lawyer?

Answer: Graham Macphee

Cam secretly hires Jamie a lawyer for his defense, even though he doesn't like him. He believes it's his duty to his cousin as clan chief of the Macdonald family.

6. What family are the Macdonalds not supposed to trust?

Answer: Campbells

The feud goes all the way back to Scotland in the Middle Ages. That is why Jamie is so shocked when he realizes the state attorney is named Audra Campbell. Oh the irony!

7. Who does Cam have an affair with?

Answer: Mia

He falls in love with her because she has the freedom to go where she wants, something he doesn't have, being trapped in his little town.

8. Where do Cam and Mia first see each other?

Answer: The Devil's Hand Cafe

They see each other during Cam's travels when he ends up in Italy. However, they don't really meet until Mia's travels bring her to a flower shop in little Weelock.

9. What does Mia put in the guest roster at the bed-and-breakfast?

Answer: Mr. and Mrs. Cameron Macdonald

The two decided to go on a weekend of fantasy and fun far away from Weelock. They wanted to get away from the stress of the trial and such. Mia writes the fake names in after Cam pretends to the managers that they are newlyweds.

10. Allie retaliates when she finds out about the affair by selling Cam's stuff.

Answer: true

In a fit of rage, she has a garage sale where she sells all of his things: clothes, memorabilia, even his favorite chair. He has to buy some of it back just so he can have a change of clothes.
