In 1887, William Jacomb, the esteemed civil engineer and final assistant of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, is found dead at his desk at Waterloo Railway Station. Underneath him there sits a manuscript, detailing nearly a century of corruption and a bizarre secret behind the industrial age. This is the story of the campaign to topple the secret society that rules the world of engineering, and destroy the secretive book of ages: the mysterious Eternal Tome, unbeknownst to the world, that has created the Industrial revolution; a book of knowledge and blueprints that maps out the future of humanity.Starring a multitude of historical figures, including Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Daniel Gooch, Robert Brereton and many more, every event in the Great London Conspiracy is informed by real life industrial revolution - with calamity, destruction and arguments interwoven with an otherwise fictional narrative.This is the secret tale of the age that created our modern way of life. This is a book that may well have you second guessing the reality of the Victorian era and those that built it.
