On the hunt for the Spanish Jewel is an exciting book for children, packed with mysteries and dark secrets

Jakob and his father, the world-famous archaeologist Roger Ravn, become involved in an intense hunt for “The Spanish Jewel”.

In a museum in Madrid, a mysterious letter suddenly appears in a book from the 13th century. The letter is written to the Norwegian King Håkon Håkonsson and is about “The Spanish Jewel”, an object shrouded in myth. The jewel is lost, and now all traces seem to lead to Norway.

In Trondheim, on the west coast of Norway, Jakob lives alone with his father, the world-famous archaeologist Roger Ravn. Nobody knows that Jakob’s father has been pointed out as the most important helper in the hunt for “The Spanish Jewel”. Not until Jakob’s girlfriend disappears. Jakob and his father have to travel from Trondheim to Tønsberg in southern Norway, to Spain and then even to more remote destinations in what turns into an intense treasure hunt where all clues point to the Middle Ages and to Norway.

But what exactly is this so-called Spanish jewel? Is it just an old fairy tale? Or is it an object in gold – or perhaps something completely different than they imagine?
