The FAS-DPD chlorine test can work up to 50 ppm and is found in the Taylor K-2006 test kit as well as Ben's test kit. If you already have a good test kit for everything else (TA, CH, CYA), then you can get the Taylor K-1515-A (or K-1515-C for a larger bottle of drops) which is just the FAS-DPD chlorine test by itself.
The other thing you can do is the shotglass method of dilution which in your case you could to with 1 part pool water and 1 part distilled (or spring) water and them multiply your measured value by 2. Do not use tap water or else you will measure the disinfection used by the city -- either extra FC (if they use chlorine) or CC (if they use monochloramine). You can dilute even more if you want with 1 part pool water and 2 parts distilled water and then multiply your measured value by 3.
However, accurately measuring 15 ppm chlorine for closing is not a big deal. If you add the amount of chlorine you expect will give you 15 ppm, then that's probably good enough. The chlorine will decline over time anyway. The reason to get a FAS-DPD chlorine test kit would be more for next season when it is important to know accurate FC and CC levels.
