Amish outlaw and big game hunter Menno ZWONK marauds across the globe entangled in a decades long feud with fringe scientist and animal rights activist Joseph MARROW. Landing in the lakeside city of DULUTH, Minnesota, MARROW becomes part of a team of four scientists who fracture reality by misusing a new physics of probability. Menno ZWONK hunts an underground network of Sapphic guerilla vegetable farmers on behalf of global megacorporation MEATCO.

Joe MARROW, his daughter Ecclesia HUMMINGBIRD, her lover Mallard MCPURDY, and objective newcomer Leon OSWALD unleash catastrophic consequences through unorthodox use of a technology which simulates possible outcomes for any action. Duluth is contaminated by the untrammeled desire and neuroses of irresponsible physicist Mallard MCPURDY. Global megacorporation MEATCO and its representative in Homeland Security, Donald STAUBER, deploy underworld figures against the scientists like the conspicuous hypochondriac spy COMA JOE, and MARROW’s fatal nemesis, the Amish outlaw and restauranteur Menno ZWONK. ZWONK engages in gang war with clandestine vegetable farmers operating outside MEATCO’s corporate control. Improbability overtakes the world as a far-fetched MEATCO weapons project spectacularly backfires.
