Once all of the chapters have been found, a final puzzle will lead to a unique email address on a .tel name, to which a keyword needs to be sent to win the amazing prize.

The story, written by internationally-renowned playwright, director and author Robert Shearman (http://robshearman.tel), continues the story of Emma, a character from Telnic's advert, which can be viewed at http://telnic.org/movie.html.
