The Pearl of Death (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781936991723)

The story of the world's largest pearl is a mix of legend, history, and human tragedy that spans the Pacific from a pre-war paradise in the Philippines, through hell on the Bataan Death March during World War II, to prejudice and betrayal in America. Take the journey with a Filipino soldier, Timoteo Matito, and an American geologist, Wilbur Cobb, as they battle greedy investors and a curse from ancient China. You'll discover the dark heart of mankind and witness a brilliant wonder of nature few people have ever seen.
