He chose to live on a tiny land mass in the upper Chesapeake Bay called "Tangier Island." When mob boss, Frank Castellano, now behind bars, learns the name of the agent and where he is hiding, a "hit" was ordered and the job was placed into the hands of the young assassin. The events surrounding the planned assassination take many dangerous and exciting twists and turns for Delilah, her victim, and the good people of Tangier Island.
