Tourmalin’s Time Cheques

Tourmalin’s Time Cheques

by F. Anstey

Peter Tourmalin is a man who is bored on a sea voyage back home to England from Australia. He discovers a bank that allows him to deposit his spare time into an account and withdraw it at any future date. He thinks this is a great idea, but things get complicated when it turns out the time withdrawn isn't in consecutive installments, but all mixed up, leaving Peter often with no clue of any preliminaries or his relationship with the person he finds himself with.
