About this listen

In debt to some Thai gangsters, crossdressing Burmese "princess" tries to run a ruby smuggling scheme just after the end of World War 2, at a ping pong club in Pattaya, Thailand.


The Pattaya Gambit was developed as a short story within my Yang-Yoshiko universe, a prequel to my 2025 novel Tiger Blues. It has since expanded beyond the bounds of a short story, into a novella. Today we are previewing the first three chapters *of the first draft*.
