Tony Chu is a detective with a secret. A weird secret. Tony Chu is cibopathic, which means he gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats. It also means he's a hell of a detective, as long as he doesn't mind nibbling on the corpse of a murder victim to figure out whodunit, and why. He's been brought on by the Special Crimes Division of the FDA, the most powerful law enforcement agency on the planet, to investigate their strangest, sickest, and most bizarre cases.

Utdrag ur boken:
Here's Tony Chu. It's Tony Chu's first day as an agent with the special crimes division of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the most powerful law enforcement agency in the world. Here's why he was hired:
Tony Chu is cibopathic. That means he can take a bite of an orange, and get a feeling in his head about what tree it grew from, what pesticides were used on the crop, and when it was harvested. Or he could eat a piece of bacon, and flash onto something else entirely.
When Tony was told he was expected to close one open case a week, no matter how old, or cold, the case. It was Tony's new boss Mike Applebee who gave him the order. He has an immediate and intense hatred for Tony. And he's determined to make Tony's new career at the F.D.A. a pure and unending living hell.
