Where Shadows go to Die- Update

I've been working hard on marketing material for Age of Becoming, but I haven't forgotten about my other projects.  Where Shadows go to Die is more of a psychological/ western/ horror I'm writing that is not part of the Kallodhan universe.  It will be a standalone book and once Age of Becoming is released, I'd like to get back to this and finish the first draft (which is 80% done).

But the ending of this book is giving me some trouble.  Perhaps I'm making it too complex.  Endings are supposed to be the best part of the book and most fun for the writers, but I find they bring a lot of pressure.  If the ending is terrible, the reader will feel like they wasted their time and probably won't read anything by that author again.

The ending I have in mind for Shadows is awesome (to me), but I'm having trouble translating it from my brain to paper.  Maybe I'm being too much like the main character in Secret Window, searching for the perfect ending.
