Dj is nicely preserved in a brand new protective mylar plastic coverr! Signed by the author on the half-title page! Gift Quality! "Brad Tillman can mesmerize audiences with his trumpet playing. While his heart is with Jean----his best friend's attractive sister----his senses are held captive by a wild, mystical trumpet player named Earle, who he meets in a Chicago parking garage on his Prom night in 1948. Earle invites Brad to jam. "I mean, REALLY jam!" The moment Earle lifts a jewel-encrusted trumpet to his lips, their rendezvous proves to be a tumultuous turning point in Brad's life. He inherits the trumpet, along with Earle's old Hudson roadster. And if Brad's playing was good before, now he can shake the world. But the mysterious trumpet has to be returned. "All your questions will be answered in due time," Earle explains before he departs, leaving Brad scratching----make that rubbing----his head, wondering just what has been set before him. With potent forces pursuing him and the trumpet, Brad begins an electrifying journey through Chicago's smoky nightclubs, the Army in Korea, and finally to a jazz club in the deep South, where he encounters the trumpet's deadliest foe. Of all the advice and prayers Brad receives as he embarks on his quest, his mother's wisdom rings true: "There's a great Joy in this. Hold onto that Joy and never let go. It'll be your best weapon."
