A secret computer project worth millions of dollars. A catastrophic fire. A badly charred body amid the debris. Chief Inspector Byram St. George of Englands Scotland Yard, and his able assistant, Det. Sgt. Laurence Poole, enter a maelstrom of intrigue and contradictions in an attempt to solve the crime. Greed. Jealousy. Embezzlement. Arson. Murder. All come together in the first in a series of Chief Inspector St. George Mysteries.

Scotland Yard's Chief Inspector Byram St. George and his assistant Detective Sergeant Laurence Poole trade good-humored gibes and enjoy each other's company while investigating a mysterious and fatal fire at a computer plant in Scotland's version of Silicon Valley. They're aided by a down-on-his-luck Scottish detective and thwarted by hostile local authorities in retired surgeon Peter Jamesson's Unplayable Lie, the first in a series of mysteries starring the golf-loving, crotchety St. George.
