The choices you make from this day forward will lead you, step by step, to the future you deserve.In the heart of Victorian London - locked away in a circular room deep within the walls of the most elite and important private gentleman''s club of them all - sits an ancient manuscript that spells out the secret word of success.During the summer of 1887, Barnabas Kreuz sends his young nephew an intriguing invitation - to join him in London and study to become a member of The Extremely Successful Salesman''s Club.There is just one catch - to pass the club''s strict induction process he must spend a week learning seven strangely ambiguous rules, rules which can only be uncovered by following a series of clues etched into the very fabric of the city.If Simeon can prove that he understands the deeper meanings behind each rule, he will receive a single letter - and when all seven letters are arranged in a specific order - a word with many meanings will be revealed - The Secret Word of Success.Passed down through generations, the 7 Rules of Success have been closely guarded by a secret and ancient organisation, often described as the most elite and important in all of Victorian London. Now those rules have been brought together in one book - The Extremely Successful Salesman''s Club.Read it, recommend it to friends - just make sure you keep it hidden as far away from your competition as possible.
