Ending: The Body of Christopher Creed

The Body of Christopher Creed was a great book, although I was kind of confused at the end of it. I loved the book, especially the surprise twist ending. In a way, it's almost better that Chris was never found. There is not really any closure in this story at all other than the fact that the body of Bob Haines was finally found after years of people wondering where he had gone.
One theory that I have is that maybe Chris has been standing by watching his hometown and Torey go through all kinds of trouble just to find him. Maybe that is all that Chris wanted to do, just to see how much people actually care about him. Also, Chris may be communicating with Torey secretly through Torey's site. For example, the note that he received on his site came from someone who obviously had a lot to say about the situation and had a fairly good idea of the way things possibly could have really happened with Creed before his disappearance.
