1. It’s
remarkable that after all the years and all the deaths the original
group of dolphins remained friends.
Do you think if they didn’t share the secret among them that
they would have gone their separate ways? 2. Do
you feel Theresa’s angry, selfish ways played a role in Mark’s
attitude change? 3. Detective
Karst comes to life in this sequel to Tryst With Dolphins.
Did the author do a nice job of expanding his character? 4. Are
you aware that Detective Karst is a real, living, breathing detective
who helps the author with the police protocol in her books? 5. If
you have ever been to a booktalk where the author and her character
Detective Karst are speaking, do you feel he is the same person as the
character in the book? 6. Does
the author manage to create a smoke screen large enough that you are
never really quite sure who the killer might be? 7. Karst
remembers his days as a rookie on the force.
Do you think that memory adds to his desire to take Kent under
his wing? 8. Do
you think the lack of a father figure causes Kent to look up to Karst as
his mentor and possible substitute for his own father? 9. Does
Kent’s need for a father influence his desire to prove to Karst that
he can become an outstanding detective? 10. At
what point, if any, did you begin to accuse a character? Which character or characters did you accuse and why? 11. Do
you feel like the sequel has done a good job of putting the finishing
touches on the characters from the first book?
If not, what would you like to see happen to continue with the
same characters? 12. Were
you totally shocked by the ending or did you see it coming? 13. How
does the cover relate to the story? 14. Did
you find the Elusive Clue word puzzle? |
