He looked around his room, trying to find traces of her presence before it all melted into nothingness. The thick carpet on the floor was trodden down by her soft feet, always clad in heavy boots, even when in the confines of the house. The table’s top has experienced her warm hands more times than his own fingers, and if he could concentrate, he is optimistic he could still feel the lingering gentleness on the wooden furniture.

A novel with an exciting start (prologue, summary, or first chapter – you take your pick) is always applauded. But what happened to paying attention to an equally important element – the ending? The novel’s conclusion is a lot trickier to nail down than any elements of the book. Why?
