But that is not the end result. At the end of the novel nothing at all seems certain, and those readers who want to know who done it are likely to feel disappointed and manipulated. However, if you rather enjoy being manipulated and led down the garden path multiple times from different perspectives, you will find An Instance of the Fingerpost a compelling and rewarding story.
