圖書名稱:Making Plans For Michael

Michael Pelton is a nice guy who has been pushed too far by his ex-wife Wednesday Brandt and her constant interference in a meaningful relationship between him and his daughter Rochelle. He determines to do something about it. With the assistance of a hacker named Dex, he installs several self-replicating spy programs into a laptop Christmas present for his daughter and starts reading all the emails that Wednesday sends and receives. He is initially shocked to discover the extent of her past and current planning against him. He decides to move from passive monitoring to a plan of active deterrent to prevent Wednesday from ever being able to exert any control over him again.

Wednesday’s brother is Angus, a convicted murderer, who hatches a brazen scheme to defraud Australian shareholders of money they don’t know they have. Angus needs his sister’s participation in his ‘Locksley’ plan as she is an Information Technology executive at ASIC. Her role will be to gather the target information, keep an ear to the ground to see if they have been detected and set up a fall guy. Initially, Wednesday makes it clear to her brother she does not want to be part of anything illegal. Angus gets out of jail on parole and he changes his name to Guru Angus. He and his gang move into the Butterfly Temple outside Lismore and stage a violent takeover of the commune and its current inhabitants. They begin turning the previously peaceful temple into the Butterfly Fortress.

Michael monitors Wednesday’s reluctance to join her brother’s fraud and realises she needs to be encouraged into the plan. He can only do this by destroying her carefully manicured reputation. He rigs a ballot and gets her electronically voted in as CEO of the RSPCAA. At Wednesday’s planned inauguration speech on the steps of the Sydney Town Hall, she arrives towing her dead pet dog on a leash behind her car which Michael had carefully placed there the previous evening. The Meat & Livestock Australia association are having a march past at the same time and a major central city riot breaks out. Wednesday is publicly shamed in the media and with her reputation now in tatters and her career in jeopardy she agrees to join Angus’ Locksley plan.

Locksley is designed to target shareholders who have at least $80,000 in stock that has not been transacted on for at least 10 years. The shareholders must also have been resident overseas for the same period. The goal is $10M Australian dollars. Angus puts the schedule in place and Locksley starts bringing home the cash.

Michael enlists the assistance of an old university acquaintance, Daisy Yung, an SS-Waffen, purple leather clad dominatrix with offices in Sydney and Hong Kong. She has embarrassing pictures of lawyers and Michael blackmails one of these lawyers to control the second signatory on the Locksley Caymans account.

Michael monitors the progress of Locksley and just before the scheme reaches the $10M target, he steals all the money and launders it through a Macau casino. He then packages up all the information he has gathered from Wednesday’s computer and sends it to the Police. Angus and his gang are arrested at the Butterfly Fortress in a debacle that kills several policemen. During the trial Wednesday turns against her brother saying she acted under duress given his previously violent nature. Angus attacks her and knocks her out. All of them end up with extended jail terms.

Jail is not good to Wednesday who ends up becoming Big-Red’s so called ‘Slut-Bitch’ and repeatedly tribbed on a nightly basis. She writes a best selling book about her experiences. Angus becomes a model prisoner and eventually gets out on a supervised day release scheme where he swims out to the ocean and is eaten by a shark.

With the proceeds of Locksley, Michael gives some of the money to the children of the woman Angus had murdered years before and purchases a house to give to Rochelle and her brother so they can finally bond together as a family.
