Full Description
A novel of death and identity where C. B. Everett himself is under suspicion. A beguiling thriller about writing and writers. For fans of Anthony Horowitz and Janice Hallett.
Ten years ago, the bestselling and critically acclaimed literary author Jonathan Durward disappeared without a trace . . . and without a final novel. Now, that missing manuscript has surfaced, but it's not another genius work of literary fiction, but an espionage novel full of all-too-stereotypical spy craft and James Bond-like twists.
His former publisher has asked the author's best friend - and fellow author - C.B. Everett, to annotate the novel with details from real life to give the novel context. But as C.B. reads, he finds the espionage thriller is filled with references to events and people who feel a little too familiar, and soon he's wondering if the novel might in fact be a key to his missing friend's disappearance. There's text and subtext aplenty, and C.B. is determined to learn once and for all what happened to Jonathan through solving the mystery woven into the pages. But the final chapter may hold secrets darker and more threatening than anyone anticipated.
An unputdownable, twisty thriller, The Final Chapter asks us: how well do we really know our closest friends? And how well do we know ourselves?
