Plot summary

A motivational book arrives as a birthday present, and its message to readers is to pursue their dreams. Emily, a martial arts instructor, was raised by a single parent and finds her life overbearing. Her father places too many expectations on her, and the boss at her job micromanages every step she takes, so she sees herself as a loser. Fed up, she quits her job and decides to chase the ambition she has held longest: becoming a criminal. She starts out with a series of small offenses such as shoplifting, jaywalking and littering, and her crimes grow steadily larger from there.
