Black Widow: Forever Red by Margaret Stohl

1.0

---

Beloved characters are made flat. Dialogue isn't distinctive or imaginative; the characters don't leap off the page. While I appreciate the insight into the Red Room, and enjoyed the past to present shifts created by the debriefings, the story feels more focused on two children--yes, linked to Agent Romanoff, but still--than the book's namesake herself.
