Big Anthony Tagliabue is a local character whose fiancee Agnes Ann owns a stable on the eponymous offshore island. She is secretly training a promising filly for the track when she discovers that Tagliabue also harbors a secret: He's a deep-cover operative who is called to duty when a Russian spy ship transits the coast on her way back to St. Petersburg.
