His best-and only friend, is a stringy ten-year-old neighborhood boy named Billy. Billy's turbulent home life frequently sends him looking to Will as a role model. On assignment in Puerto Rico Will meets Natalia Colon, a beautiful and devout woman, and he uncharacteristically falls for her. But just as their relationship begins to progress, Will receives devastating news--Natalia is his next target. Because he refuses the job and vows to help Natalia, a team of professional killers is dispatched to eliminate them both. Complicating matters, Billy stows away and turns up missing. Natalia, who despises Will after discovering his true occupation, finds her world of black-and-white clashing with Will's world of gray, as they must work together to save themselves. Through their many adventures, neither remains unchanged as their values and philosophies collide in the fight for their ideals, survival, and sanity. The action and debate continue right up to the shocking ending...
