Renee is in love with Dante, an Undead whose life is coming to an end, so they are searching for the eternal life. Since Renee and her friend
Noah have found the Cartesean map which shows them the location of five places
that will lead them to eternal life, Dante and Renee start on their journey. They find themselves torn between the leaders
of the Undead and the leaders of the Monitors (those whose job it is to bury the
Undead) and being led with clues by an ally named Monsieur. Whether they will find what they are looking
for in time for Dante to maintain his humanity or Renee will lose her life for
Dante is the question throughout the book.
This is the third book in the Dead Beautiful trilogy. Renee and Dante’s love story is brought to a
satisfying conclusion with good character twists throughout. At times the monotony of the journey slowed
the story down, but the threat of the Undead and Renee’s grandfather propels
the reader to find out what happens in the end.
This was a good series because it’s clean, with interesting characters and story line. It is easy to recommend to young
adults who like supernatural books.
