Not many people know I was a silent partner in a burlesque show in Houston, Texas from 1978 thru 1983. I did it to help an old buddy from the Army. Seemed a great way to meet girls when work brought me down that way. Turns out it got me up to my neck in trouble a few times, too. Let me tell you about one of them. This one happened in June of 1980, and it was one of those incidents where I couldn't stop what was happening until it was already too late . . .
There's no sex in the champagne room.
Chuck comes to Houston to discover his pal has installed a new amenity in the burlesque joint. The champagne room offers an intimate connection between a client and the dancer of his choice ... but no sex. However, maybe someone should've told the gun-toting cowboy waiting for his turn ...
But there are dangers aplenty!
Trapped in a champagne room with two dancers and a maniac who wants a better show than the girls are able to legally give, can Chuck defuse the situation or take the cowboy down before someone gets shot?
Magic Carpet Ride is the third short thriller in the Chuck Cave's Burlesque series. A series of original stories following the beloved action hero, this short story offers readers an action-packed yarn that puts the protagonist in the path of a maniac with a gun ...
Fans of Joe R. Lansdale's Hap and Leonard, Robert Bloch's psychological suspense, and J.A. Konrath's thrillers will find a similar mix of action, danger, and macabre sense of humor.
This exclusive edition includes a bonus story starring Chuck Cave!
More twisted tales from Chuck Cave's Burlesque are coming soon!
