When Marrowburg's most fearsome gangster, Kid Phoenix, gets gunned down behind Stripping Through History (a titty bar that combines nudity with feminist history), there is a silver lining: he gets a second chance at life. Coming back as Baby Jaydon, whose perpetual five o'clock shadow and penchant for swearing aren't going to win him any friends on the playground, he's adopted by a well-to-do family and goes to live in the suburbs with no memory of his former life. But after a chance run-in with his ex-henchman, Ram Bountybar, Baby Jaydon begins to recall fragments of his former underworld life. He forsakes his quiet existence of building blocks and afternoon naps to find out who put five slugs in his back.

With the help of Ram and Kid's former moll, Ruby Redd, who's now a nun, Baby Jaydon goes on a dangerous journey through Marrowburg's twisted underworld to find out who killed him. Blood and formula flow as a baby, a god's servant and a thug encounter mobsters, rabid ocelots, and the world's angriest travel agent.
