So how do you create a good closing line?  Reading your book aloud,

particularly your last chapter, is one way to find that elusive ending. As you listen to your own voice, you can single out phrases or ideas that are strong enough to permanently etch the theme of your story into a reader’s mind. You knew what you wanted to say when you started the book and the final sentence must reflect that. As you scan your material, see if something jumps out at you.
