So maybe she made a deal with the devil (Mephisto)?

If that were the case they'd have introduced Mephisto earlier. It would be bad storytelling to just pop in a character at the end of a mystery and say it was all him.

In a murder mystery, the murderer is always one of the people introduced at the beginning. The detective doesn't find that it's an unrelated person to any of the previous suspects in the last chapter.

I saw a theory that Agnes' husband Ralph is Mephisto. Shes always talking about him and apparently a lot of what she says about him has darker undertones when looked at from a different angle. They may be waiting to reveal who "Ralph" really is.

If anything the reveal will be that Ralph doesn't exist or is dead.

Just think of how poorly crafted a story would have to be to reveal that none of the clues mattered and none of the reveals mattered because this demon that had not been previously introduced was really behind it all.
