The Case of the Murdered Madame

THE VOICE FROM THE DOORWAY SAID: “But why point the gun, Mr. Chambers?”


The lady who owned the voice was tall, with wide dark eyes and a fine full figure.


The lady was familiar — too familiar. And if my memory was not upsetting the gun in my hand — the last time I saw her the lady was in my arms…


They called it a ‘theatrical’ boarding house but when madame was found — very lovely and very dead — Peter Chambers found himself with a case of multiple murder, a missing 100,000 in cold cash and an ex-stripper who had not forgotten how to strip, on his very able hands.
