    /threads/id/45 will give you a MessageDiscussion object. From there, you can chain the "/messages/latest" method to get a "Message" object corresponding to the latest post in the thread. And then to that, you can chain "/author" to get the details of the author for that message.

    /threads/id/45/messages/latest/author
