For most couples, a quiet dinner for two at Auberge de la Reine Blanche on the Ile Saint Louis would be just the thing to smooth out the complications in a romance. But for gorgeous Mossad operative Delilah and trying-to-retire contract killer John Rain, nothing is ever easy, and when Rain sees a crew of hard-looking men setting up outside the restaurant, he realizes someone has been bringing her work home with her. Is it a hit - or something even worse? When it comes to killing, business and pleasure are the most dangerous mix of all.

As usual Barry Eisler's narration is spectacularly good.
Not much room to build a story in under an hour. Still - a well crafted short story with an, ahem... satisfying amount of violence.

Story - OK. Narration - great.

Doesn't John know a good thing when he has it?
Apparently not!
Good tight story and set up for whatever comes next.

Action packed but sad

very short but very good
