Short story with a hardened protagonist and his equally tough girlfriend, Delila, in the spy/assassination game. John Rain is a considering going off the grid as an assassin but his girlfriend, an Israeli spy, isn't ready for it yet. Rain's desires become moot as the story progresses, since other assassins are after Delila.  The story starts with the two lovers debating and disagreeing over their future, and then the pace goes viral as the killers close in and Rain does what he does best. This is a blend of great characters, crisp dialog and blistering action.
