Hello everyone,

As you know, The Devil's Feather will be published in the UK on 8 September 2005. However, ahead of the official release, we've got 10 proof copies of the book to give away. Minette has kindly signed them, making each one a prized addition to any fan's collection!

Now, we could just give them away randomly, but we want to ensure that they go to good homes! So, Minette has devised a little quiz. Just answer all 10 questions below and send your answers to us via email. We will give a signed proof copy to the first 10 readers who email us with all 10 correct answers. Good luck!

***

1) The Ice House: What were the names of the dogs that found the body in the actual ice house?

2) The Sculptress: Olive called her sister Amber, instead of her real name of Alison. Why?

3) The Scold's Bridle: What was the name of Mathilda Gillespie’s husband?

4) The Dark Room: What was Jinx Kingsley's job?

5) The Echo: Who was Billy Blake?

6) The Breaker: Where was Kate Sumner’s body found?

7) The Shape of Snakes: Derek Slater once tells Michael Percy that his mother reminded him of a certain kind of snake. What kind was it?

8) Acid Row: Where does the name Acid Row come from?

9) Fox Evil: What was the relationship between Wolfie and Fox?

10) Disordered Minds: What were Jonathan Hughes' racial roots (the nationality of his mother and father)?
