Things are looking up for Tony Chu, the cibopathic federal agent with the ability to get psychic impressions from the things he eats. He's got a girlfriend. He's got a partner he trusts. He even seems to be getting along with his jerk boss. But his ruthless ex-partner is still out there, operating outside of the law, intending to make good on his threats against Tony and everybody Tony cares about. It's just a matter of time before their investigations collide, blood spills and-inevitably-body parts are eaten.
It's both funny and disturbing. If this were a "completely realistic" book then it would be horrifying, but the comedy and the extremeness of the art goes to push it toward comedy.
If I had to point to a weakness, I'd say that the comedy doesn't mesh well with Tony's more quiet, personal troubles. But that's a minor point over all.
