The dying Florian magically mind-wipes Johann, so he ends up with no memories but the will to carry out Florian's plans. So the end is back to the beginning; he's a murderer stalking the city with no idea of who he is.
Weird. I mean, if you didn't just mind-wipe Johann, but threw him back to the start of the book then you would have this sort of incredibly grim Groundhog Day, but just mindwiping him doesn't seem to accomplish anything except possibly undermine Johann's ability and motive to carry out Florian's wishes.
