The Final Chapter
Regarding C.B. Everett's sort-of mystery/suspense novel, THE FINAL CHAPTER: Yes, there is an element of traditional mystery novelization and, as expected, a significant group of surprises in one of the two primary stories comprising this brilliant, puzzling, confusing, two-novels-in-one work of art.

I was immediately drawn to THE OTHER PEOPLE after reading the description of a locked-room-style mystery and the opening quote chosen by C.B. Everett: "She couldn't imagine wanting to die. Death was for the other people" (Dame Agatha Christie, AND THEN THERE WERE NONE). Twenty-one-year-old British film student Kyle Tanner wakes up in a bedroom very reminiscent of his own. However, when looking out the window, he realizes that he is in an entirely different place and has no idea how he got there.
