Tyler Fairfax can't seem to catch a break.

A human living in the toon district of Animætropolis, the only affordable neighborhood in San Jose, he's been surviving on the kindness of strangers, his badger neighbors, and his boyfriend while he looks for a job. An unexpected encounter with a toon from the black-and-white days gets him exactly what he needs and then some.

But Tyler's problems aren't over yet; a stranger informs him people have been going missing around this toon and his live-in talent agent, and to keep an eye out for anything suspicious. Tyler’s curiosity gets the better of him; he learns what happened to at least one of those people... and now it's happened to him.

He is turned into Fairfax Fawkes, a toon fox with a human mind and perception; everything a toon would be able to shrug off, he feels as if he were still human. Worse still, indulging his toon instincts erases a human trait or, potentially, a memory.

As he traces a web of lies, drugs, human trafficking, and murder for hire, he has to work around his foil’s compulsion to impede his progress. Trapped between human sensibilities and toon guidelines, Fairfax has to break a lot of rules if he has any hope of surviving this.

It’s get wacky or get whacked.
