   Summary

   Natalia (Black Widow) and the Asset (The Winter Soldier) return to the field for several more missions for the KGB. What missions will put them on the right side of history? What missions will stain her and him forever? And how long can they keep their secret affair from their handlers?
   .
   "A Sanguine Hourglass" is the final part of a 3 part series, starting with "Snowed In" and then followed by "Wolves at the Door."
   .
   Chapter 18 serves as an interlude/pivot for the story before it reaches its conclusion. Readers short on time that want to get to the heart of my Buckynat relationship dynamic during the Red Room days can actually dive in here.
   .
   Chapter 21 begins the multi-chapter tragic conclusion of the series. (The start of what Winter Soldier/Black Widow comic fans have all been dreading...)
