What Is Time To A Pig?

Bag om What Is Time To A Pig?

In the not-so-distant future in Cold, Storage, Alaska, a man is kidnapped from prison and placed in a drug-induced haze. Why? To find a missing nuclear bomb. It’s been seven years since Gloomy Knob landed in the Ted Stevens High-Security Federal Penitentiary and five years since the end of the war, the one North Korea started when they sent a missile to Cold Storage, Alaska. Serving a life sentence for the murder of his sister, Gloomy spends his time trying to forget about the past.   Then one day, an old family friend grabs Gloomy from his off-site work station and smuggles him away in a hollow tree trunk. Instead of celebrating his newfound freedom, Gloomy finds himself coming unmoored—he feels he belongs in prison for the unspeakable wrongs he has committed. But his kidnappers believe Gloomy knows where a second nuclear warhead is hidden and demand to know where it is before it detonates. The clock is ticking, and Gloomy knows he needs to find the missing warhead fast, or his wife, his friends, the entire town of  Cold Storage may be obliterated. The only problem is he has no idea where it is. As Gloomy struggles to escape, the memories he fought hard to repress begin to creep out from the strange corners of his mind, first in rivulets, then in waves. In a drug-induced haze, Gloomy makes a discovery that may just bring him the closure he desires—if it doesn’t kill him first.
