And here are the answers for Round I:
1. What’s the name of bar/restaurant where Reece and Kara meet?
The Rio del Sol, or The Rio
2. What are Julian’s two undercover alias?

A Colorado journalist's best friend!
4. How does Sophie finally recognize Marc?
In the cabin, he slips and calls her "Sprite."

(He's switching now to a Prius due to gas prices, but that's not in the book. LOL!)
6. What does virginal, teenage Sophie expect a man’s penis to feel like?
Everyone got this right: A HOT DOG!
7. What is Tessa’s (and the author's) favorite kind of latte?

Got one on my desk right now.

Investigative Team.
Kudos to those of you who added the name of the newspaper — The Denver Independent.
9. What kind of firearm does Marc carry?
A Glock .45 stolen off Kramer during his prison break.
I was impressed by how many of you remembered Kramer's name.
10. What does Connor call his mommy’s vibrator?
A jiggle stick.
Congrats to the four highest point winners in this round! Now on to Round II, where the questions get a bit tougher.
Here, once more, are The Rules.
To participate email your answers to me at pamelaclare @ earthlink . net (remove spaces) by the specified deadline.
Do not post your answers on the blog. However, feel free to comment on the discussion questions.
Each round of questions will remain on my blog for four days. The answers must arrive in my email before midnight on the fourth day.
When I ask for the name of someone or something, I mean the entire name. First names don't cut it.
After each round, the names of the highest scorers will be listed at the beginning of the next round. At the end of the 12-day contest, the participant who answered the most questions correctly will get a signed copy of the I-Team book of her choice together with a sample of "Marc" and "Sophie" perfumes.
If there is a tie, we'll have an instant death play-off on in my chat room.
