The Trumpeter's Promise

It tells a legendary tale of treasure, loyalty, and promises, and also the moving story of two trumpeters living in different centuries. In the 13th century, a loyal trumpeter in Krakow, Poland, was shot dead by enemies. Two centuries later, a boy named Joseph and his family arrive in the city, taking lodging below an alchemist. Joseph's father secures the position of trumpeter. Joseph deeply falls in love with this ancient and beautiful city, unaware that his family has been drawn into an evil conspiracy because of a constantly contentious treasure—the Great Crystal Ball of Tarnow. They become embroiled in a struggle against brutal Tatar bandits, alchemists, hypnotists, and dark emissaries of the devil. Should the crystal ball be stolen, disaster will surely strike again. In the nick of time, who will answer Joseph's trumpet call? What will be the ultimate fate of this crystal ball containing evil power? Brave little Joseph, true to his promise of an ancient oath, decides to protect this rare treasure, no matter the cost! This story, filled with positive energy, is incredibly captivating.
