Kind of a fun little story about a time traveling capitalist and a government fraud investigator just recently diagnosed with inoperable cancer. The investigator is bound and determined to book the Time Traveler for selling fraudulent products. Products that seem too impossibly good to be true. Truth is though, they ARE superior products because they were manufactured in the future and are built with superior technology.
No surprises plot wise, and an easy way to pass a half hour of reading time.
The ending, is of course, straight forward predictable
