'CB Everett is a master of fiendishly plotted, intelligent mysteries' MARK EDWARDS
A famous author vanished.
His final manuscript has just been found.
And it may be the key to everything.
Ten years after Jonathan Durward disappeared without a trace, his lost novel resurfaces. But instead of the literary masterpiece the world expected, it is a lurid spy thriller: coded, slippery and full of impossible clues.
Asked to annotate the manuscript, Jonathan's closest friend begins to see something buried beneath the clichés - real people, real events, and a truth someone may still be desperate to hide.
Was Jonathan's final book a confession? A warning? Or a trap?
Fiendishly clever and brilliantly twisty, The Final Chapter is a gripping mystery about friendship, identity and the stories that refuse to stay buried.
'A metafictional tour de force' THE GUARDIAN

'A fiendishly clever thriller with a brilliant sting in the tail. Highly recommended' CASS GREEN
