Lia Park and the Missing Jewel: Volume 1, Yoon Jenna

Twelve-year old Lia Park just wants to fit in. Her parents work with a mysterious organization that makes them ridiculously overprotective. Lias every move has been scrutinized since she was born, and shed love to have the option of doing something exciting for once. So when she gets invited to the biggest birthday party of the year--and her parents say she cant go--Lia sneaks out.

But her first act of rebellion not only breaks her parents rules, but also an ancient protection spell, allowing an evil diviner spirit to kidnap and ransom her parents for a powerful jewel that her family has guarded for years. With just the clothes on her back and some very rusty magical skills, Lia finds herself chasing mysterious clues that take her to her grandmothers home in Korea.
