(4) 4-6 Stuck in a hick town in Maine for the summer, thirteen-year-old Manuel desperately wants to return home to New Haven. To raise money, Manuel works for Zeke, a crotchety old lobsterman. Manuel's slow summer picks up (as does the book) when Manuel finds himself hunting for "black gold" (mussels) with Zeke. The unlikely pair forge a reluctant friendship as adventures and troubles mount.
