For Kate, it is also difficult to contemplate watching her love die over and over and again. Whilst it is not unheard of for a human and a revenant to fall in love, it is a difficult road to travel, particularly because one person ages and the other doesn't. Each death regenerates him enabling him to basically stay a young man forever. Vincent is a revenant - a paranormal creature who dies over and over again saving human lives. She is a young American girl who has come to Paris to live with her sister and her grandparents after the death of her parents. In the last book we met Kate and Vincent. We had the set up of the world in the last book, and in this book a lot of time is spent arming the characters for the big finale in the next book. The book is good without being excellent, and in some ways felt very much like the middle book in a trilogy, which is what it is. What about inside the book though? I mean, after all, a gorgeous cover is great to catch the eye but it is really what is inside the cover that matter. It doesn't hurt that purple is my favourite colour, or that the buildings are meant to represent Paris! Somewhere up high in the book heavens, the cover gods see that Amy Plum has a new book coming out and decides that once again it is time to bless her! The cover on this book is gorgeous, especially in real life.
