Fire Horn (Paperback)

The greatest thief in the city of Bishop, Illinois, the Slippery Fish, Stanley, must save his sister from the city's feared crime syndicate that took her. Armed with a magic book, and a flamethrowing trumpet, Stanley starts a war between the thieves and the assassins of the city, the same assassins who killed his parents for possession of the book they call Gold Fortune. Stanley is confident that he can win against the syndicate, up until he discovers that the assassins of the syndicate also have a magic book, called Silver Destiny, and it can be used to control the minds of many people, including Stanley and his sister.
