Firing Invention

The European Invention Institute, a world-leading research organisation supported by twenty Member States, was set up to be the first to discover new inventions in all areas, including electronics, trade, pharmaceuticals, Information Technology, financial services, transportation, medical equipment and industrial machinery. Security at the Institute is high as new inventions are valuable and can generate millions of dollars for those who find them first. When a lowly Institute employee was fired for no apparent reason, and information about new inventions began to be leaked to the press, suspicion fell on Americans and Russians in the Institute. But when the Director-General set out to find the culprit, the result was far from what he expected.
