Publisher's summary
Ein Meisterdieb ist durch Ausübung seines Handwerks in der ganzen Welt ein reicher Mann geworden. Schließlich zieht es ihn jedoch in seine Heimat zurück, und er erzählt seinem Paten, dem Grafen im Schloss nahe seinem Vaterhaus, von seinen Fähigkeiten. Der ist zunächst erbost und möchte den Meisterdieb sofort hängen lassen. Dann gibt er ihm aber noch die Chance, mit drei Aufgaben sein Können zu beweisen. Als erstes muss der Meisterdieb das beste Pferd aus dem Stall des Grafen stehlen, das von Soldaten bewacht wird. Der Dieb verkleidet sich als altes Mütterchen und verkauft den Wachen einschläfernden Wein. Dann geht er in den Stall zu den drei Leibwächtern, die inzwischen narkotisiert sind: Einer hält die Zügel des Pferdes in der Hand, der andere den Schwanz und der dritte schnarcht im Sattel vornüber geneigt. Dem ersten gibt er ein Seil in die Hand, dem zweiten ein Bündel Stroh, den Reiter lässt er im Sattel sitzen, hebt aber den Sattel mit mehreren Stricken vom Gebälk herab so weit in die Höhe, dass er das Pferd unbemerkt unter ihm wegziehen kann. Er umwickelt die Hufe des Pferdes mit Lumpen und leitet es geräuschlos zum Stall und aus dem Schloss hinaus.
Die zweite Aufgabe lautet: Der Meisterdieb soll dem Grafen in der Nacht das Bettlaken unterm Leib weg und der Gräfin den Trauring vom Finger stehlen. Er löst diese Aufgabe, indem er vom Galgenhügel eine Leiche holt und sich diese auf die Schultern setzt. Er stellt eine Leiter vor das Schlafzimmer des Grafen und steigt mit der geschulterten Leiche so weit hinauf, bis der Kopf der Leiche am Fenster erscheint. Der Graf, der darauf gewartet hat, schießt mit seiner Pistole den Leichnam "tot". Weil es aber immerhin sein Patenkind war, geht der Graf in den Garten, um den Erschossenen zu begraben. Unterdessen steigt der Meisterdieb in das Schlafzimmer, gaukelt der Gräfin vor, er sei ihr Mann und brauche das Bettlaken zum Einwickeln des Erschossenen. Überdies bittet er sie, dem Patenkind den Trauring mit ins Grab zu geben, und verschwindet damit.
Die dritte Aufgabe: Er soll den Pfarrer und den Küster aus der Kirche stehlen. Diese Aufgabe löst der Meisterdieb, indem er Krebse, denen er brennende Kerzen auf den Rücken geklebt hat, nachts auf dem Kirchhof aussetzt und laut verkündet, dies seien die Seelen der Toten, die aus den Gräbern gestiegen seien; der Jüngste Tag sei gekommen und er sei Petrus, der die Menschen ins Himmelreich bringe. Der Pfarrer und der Küster wollen als erste in den Himmel kommen und kriechen bereitwillig in einen Sack. Der Meisterdieb schleppt den Sack durchs Dorf bis zum Schloss hinauf und in den Taubenschlag. Er lässt die beiden liegen und macht ihnen weis, sie hörten die Engel mit den Flügeln schlagen.

Story
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

If you were asked to choose the most fabulous character in English literature, who would it be? Perhaps the one and only Ichabod Crane. When this superstitious schoolmaster moves into the quiet village of Sleepy Hollow, he quickly starts vying for the affection of heiress Katrina Van Tassel. However, this puts him in the path of town bully Brom Bones. Will Ichabod win Katrina's heart, or will he fall victim to the small town's big legend—the Headless Horseman?
