The probable solutions of deleting the entity without retrieving it By Changing State

DbContext has methods called Entry and Entry, these methods get a DbEntityEntry for the given entity and provide access to the information about the entity and return a DbEntityEntry object able to perform the action on the entity. Now we can perform the delete operation on the context by just changing the entity state to EntityState.Deleted.

 using (Entities Context = new Entities())  
 {  
    Book  deptBook  = new Book  { Id  = bookId };  
    Context.Entry(deptBook).State = EntityState.Deleted;  
    Context.SaveChanges();  
 }
