Review of Vengeance Red
Fran Rupert was born in the Cold War era in the 1960s. She’s a strong protagonist who thinks men and women should have the same rights. Women were then prohibited from doing numerous things because they were viewed as weak. Fran's mother has often reprimanded her to cease degrading herself and start acting like a proper lady. Her love of and prowess in baseball, her cross-country running abilities, and her zeal for espionage earned her a recommendation from the Central Intelligence Agency. She is the antithesis of what a proper lady should be. She received a job offer from the CIA just before she was set to receive her college degree. Numerous hazardous uphill jobs are part of this employment. Will she succeed in this position? Read this book to learn the answer.
R. C. Schulz's story Vengeance Red depicts how women were perceived during the Cold War era. Fran is a feminist who disregards gender expectations to live her own life. Even when she was shunned by society for acting inappropriately, she continued to live her life on her terms. She objected to being barred from playing baseball. Fran could outplay most of the boys in her class, but she couldn't make the team because she is a woman. Fran wished to participate in a variety of activities in which she excelled, but she was unable to do so due to gender discrimination. This, however, inspired her to continue fighting for gender equality, and she vowed to prove society wrong.
This gender discrimination can be seen in today's world, where women are unable to do certain jobs or achieve certain goals because they believe they are not capable. The author did an excellent job of depicting the lifestyle of the 60s, which can be seen in our world today. This intriguing story demonstrates how women can do and be anything. Fran is a strong female character who I grew to admire as I read the book.
What I loved most about this fascinating story is Fran's aptitude and wit as a CIA spy. It was admirable how effortlessly she tried to finish each mission given to her, no matter how risky it was. Her proficiency with a gun is admirable. She is quite skilled at it and has a vast range of accuracy. I particularly valued the author's thorough explanation of CIA activities because it helped me grasp how they function. As a woman, the story's conclusion gave me a lot to think about. This book has many moral lessons to teach as well as being entertaining.
There is nothing about the book I disliked. The book is professionally edited. I found just three mistakes in it. I must commend the editor of this book on a job well done. The story plot is well-structured, and the language is clear and easy to understand. This novel's fluid writing style added to its flow and pace. I rate the book four out of four stars. The book teaches all women to believe in themselves, to be true, and to be determined to achieve their goals. I recommend this novel to fans of historical fiction as well as individuals who are hesitant to pursue their dreams because of how society perceives them.
