Tempus Fugit

Frank Barron serving a sentence in a federal prison for smuggling learns of a way to make millions of dollars at the government's expense, and all for free. When Tony Slye came to Frank with some paperwork to research in the law library of the federal correctional facility, Frank figured it would kill some of the short time he had left to serve, and maybe make him some spare change for junk food in the commissary. Frank didn't have any concerns or anxiety about his release and probation. He'd served some state and federal time and he'd worked it out that he'd never return to a prison in this lifetime. Mona, Frank's wife, waited at home, and she had a good little business with her antique store in a small tourist town. But during his research for Tony Slye Frank discovers a way to make a lot of money on his own, and he knows he has to share the idea with Slye even though he's a meth head and dealer from a town near to Franks hometown. After all, Slye originally brought the idea to Frank. Frank's world would never be quite what he expected, but perhaps the hundred million dollars he could extract from the federal government would ease the pain some.
