Death by chocolate

In the Twenty-First Century of Our Lord, Christ the Fit, being fat is no longer a matter of self-esteem - it's a crime. Matt Devlin is a New York Health Enforcement Agent. His is humdrum work, busting the 'eateasys', checking weight permits and issuing tickets. Then a beautiful woman is found dead, dressed only in sweet-scented 'brown' - the rarest, most potent cocoa powder known to man. Is this a case for Homicide, or a food crime? As the full-fat conspiracy spreads to the upper echelons of Manhattan society, Matt's investigation takes him on a bizarre trail of religious corporations and 'humonsters' (the really big ones) in search of the truth.

  • "In the Twenty-First Century of Our Lord, Christ the Fit, it has been illegal to be fat for three years, except in Louisiana and Alabama, where they cling to their chicken-fried-fullest-fat-cream-sodden-gumbo-dunkin'-mall-waddling-lives as if their souls depended on it. Matt Devlin is a Health Enforcement Agent. His is humdrum work, busting the eateasys selling illegal burgers and chocolate, checking weight permits, issuing tickets and looking for humonsters, the really big ones. When a beautiful woman is found dead, dressed only in sweet-scented "brown" (made from the rarest cocoa bean) Homicide call for help. It looks like murder, but is it also a food crime?"
