I Told You I'd Make A Billion: A Tale of Lust, Greed and Corruption in the Australian Building Industry

This novel is a rollicking ride of a read, which sources close to the Australian building industry say could almost be more truth than fiction. The story embraces the deliberate choice of a building magnate to take the path of corruption, especially in relation to the union movement, in order to survive and prosper in a cutthroat industry. The novel offers an interesting plot. A DIY plan by an ambitious builder, weighed down by insufferable union thugs, deciding that if you can’t beat them you may as well join them. No matter how far the main character sank, he still seemed on higher ground than those who never questioned the morality of his actions and simply took what was on offer.
As it is the building industry, the words and plot are not for the faint-hearted. It is a very masculine read.
