From the back cover:
Ramon Salazar knows that someday he will become a partner with his father, pearling in the waters off Baja California. But at sixteen, he's more interested in pearling alone. Ramon wants to find the great pearl - the magnificent Pearl of Heaven - for with it comes untold riches.
But what Ramon doesn't realize is that the pearl brings more than riches. It brings danger, jealousy, and even death.
Ramon must ask himself: How much is the pearl really worth?

This is a 1968 Newbery Honor book. I enjoyed this story a lot.
