Strange Problem... can't read the whole book

Hello,

My girls and I just got back from vacation last night, and we had a great time! We didn't have any troubles traveling through security with my Pocket Pro, and we had a great time with my parents and grandparents! Mom really liked my Pocket Pro. Grandma has always been an avid reader, but unfortunately several years ago she lost her eye sight. So I had an opportunity to read to her from her favorite author. She was really impressed that I could have so many books on that little electronic device!

Anyway, to my problem... before I left I found a page with some Stargate SG1 fan fiction. I made ebooks with them using one of the new betas of Sigil, and loaded them onto my ebook. I was close to the end (or so I thought) on the plane home, when all of a sudden the book ended in the middle of a sentence! I thought maybe I hadn't copied the entire book, so when I got home last night I opened up the copy on my computer to see. Well, the whole book is there. I opened it both in Sigil, and in ADE, and both programs see the entire book. So I made another copy (with a slightly different name so it wouldn't override the previous copy) and put it on my SD card. I tried opening that one, and it ends in the same place. The PP says it is page 129 of 129, and it just quits. I've tried it in size 3 font, and in the original font. Not that that would make any difference, but I was grasping at straws. So this morning I popped the SD card into my computer to check the epub files, and I can read the entire book on my computer. It is very strange that I can see it on my computer, but not on my pocket pro. I also tried putting a copy of the book onto the internal memory of the Pocket Pro, but it still ends on page 129. This is the strangest thing, and I just cannot imagine why I can read the books on my computer, but not on my Pocket Pro. I don't think it has anything to do with sigil, since I can read the books in ADE. And since the copies from my card can be read on my computer, I don't think there's anything wrong with the file. But I am open to suggestions! I've gotta find out how the book ends! But I don't want to read it on my computer.

Oh, and my Pocket Pro is fully charged. I can read other books that are much longer with no problem. Also, this book is only 130 K, and I've got another book on there that is over 1MB, so the size shouldn't be the problem. Thanks for any advice!
