Any ideas?

If the last sections of the chapters go into their own page sequence, just use a page master with one column for them and a two-column page master for everything else. If you want to start the last section right after the section before, possibly on a two-column page, or if you want to float the last bit of content from the section before the last section onto the one-column page where the last section starts (odd thoughts), then there is no easy way to do this. The hard ways all involve estimating how text fills space and have to be tailored to your content, if this is possible at all.
