'Dear Jeffie, I am going away, but I'm not really going away from you. I will hold you in my heart, and you will hold me in your heart, and we can't ever be very far from each other then, can we?
'
Jeff abandoned by his mother Melody, grows up with his dusty old father, whom he knows only as the Professor. When Melody appears in Jeff's life and invites him to stay for the summer, his world is alight with happiness. But Melody's never around and Jeff is as lonely as ever. Maybe the Professor isn't as dusty as Jeff had always imagined. But maybe, like the solitary blue heron, it's wise to never get too close to anyone...
A lyrical story of loneliness and family relationships, 'A Solitary Blue' builds on a character introduced in Book Two of the Tillerman's Series, 'Dicey's Song'.
