Off Herring Cove Road: The Problem Being Blue

All that's soon threatened when Blue's estranged mother returns to take him away, and around the same time, he's harassed and threatened by his father's affiliation with the very dangerous, local biker gang to whom his father owes money.

Blue, his surrogate family, and Dwight's new academically overachieving friend, Lyon, are forced to deal with the quickly escalating problems that threaten both the family unit and its members.


ABOUT THE SERIES

The third of the four novels in the unique, evocative and not-so-nuclear family saga series Herring Cove Road, where a small group of troubled individuals dealing with their own personal issues accidentally come together to form a family unit, and then while struggling to maintain it, are forced to deal with its dark results, such as: racism, death, murder, suicide and much more.

Taking place primarily in the 70's, with believable characters and mostly situated in several areas of Halifax, Nova Scotia, the series chronicles the actions (and their results) of an old and introverted Jewish man, a struggling mother, her naive and lonely son, and a boy streetwise beyond his years.
