A private detective investigates a new consumer taste treat that's absolutely delicious and just possibly lethal.

When a mysteriously delicious custard-like substance is found in the Arctic, it is marketed as a frozen dessert. It becomes wildly popular and is in fact addictive, and, also, as is later discovered, a threat to life on Earth.
