This story is a retelling of Robin Hood from a female perspective. I was quite taken with the protagonist early in the story as she was strong, relatively independent, and she read people well. However, I was a bit disappointed that Robin was able to draw her into his web so easily. Robin is depicted as a narcissist and for which I had no regard.  An interesting take on a well-known tale. Recommended.
