Rooting around one day in the attic of his home, Gudjon G. Georgsson comes across an old book inscribed THE GOLD DIGGER’S HANDBOOK, and in it is a map that leads to hidden treasure.

Milla and Gudjon G. Georgsson’s treasure hunt takes them down strange, dangerous and sometimes confusing paths.

This is the exciting third story in the award-winning Swanby Series, about Milla and Gudjon G. Georgsson.

The first books in the series about two friends from Swanby were a hit with readers. The Secrets of the Abandoned House won the 2019 Icelandic Children’s Book Prize and the sequel, The Mysterious Statue and the Boy who Disappeared, won the 2021 Reykjavik Children’s Book Award.
