Questions and Answers

2.

True or False: Chirugh killed the deputy and the man in the car with the stungun plunger thingy.
- True
- False
Correct Answer
A. False

Explanation
The deputy had a sort of stungun on him, but the book didn't do a good job of describing it. Chirugh killed the deputy by strangling him with his handcuffs. Then, he pulled over the man in the car and killed him with the plunger thing so he could take the car.

Rate this question:
3.

Why do you think that Moss and his wife have the relationship that they do? Do you think it is a healthy relationship or a destructive one? Why?
4.

Who is found in the trunk of a car found by Torbert?
- Bill Wyrick
- Joe Johnson
- Mathan Niller
- Agua Hombro
Correct Answer
A. Bill Wyrick

Explanation
Bill Wyrick is found in the car shot up and with his billfold stolen. Sheriff Bell only knows his identity because of a receipt left mistakenly in his pocket. He knows that this was done by the man who killed his deputy and who is a major dope runner.

Rate this question:
5.

Explain your opinion about why Moss did not go to the Sheriff with what he had found while hunting.
6.

Where did Moss send his wife after he got shot at and chased by the men?
- Her mother's house in Odessa
- Her sister's house in Del Rio
- A motel in Kansas
- Iowa
Correct Answer
A. Her mother's house in Odessa

Explanation
Moss told his wife that she should go to Odessa. It doesn't say directly that it is her mother's house until she asks what she should say and he says,"Maybe, 'Mama, I'm home'?" Moss then travels to Del Rio to stay in a hotel and make his plans.

Rate this question:
7.

Does Chirugh know who Moss is and where he lives?
- Yes
- No
Correct Answer
A. Yes

Explanation
Chirugh's men found out who Moss was and told Chirugh, who then killed them. He went into town looking for Moss and went to the trailer where he lived. Fortunately for Moss, his wife had already left for Odessa and he had left to go to Del Rio.

Rate this question:
8.

What do you think of Moss? From what he has said, what can you say he has done before in his life? Is he truly a good guy or does he have some bad in him? Explain.
9.

What does Moss buy and then alter?
- Shotgun and tent
- Shotgun and car
- Rifle and tent
- Rifle and periscope
Correct Answer
A. Shotgun and tent

Explanation
Moss thought he saw the curtains moved in the window of his room, so he checked into another hotel and then went to the store to buy a shotgun and a tent. He sawed off the end of the shotgun and only took the poles of the tent with him. He is probably going to do something in the first hotel with these items.
