Not every story is black and white.
Riley and Jen have been best friends since they were children, and they thought their bond was unbreakable. It never mattered to them that Riley is black and Jen is white. And then Jen`s husband, a Philadelphia police officer, is involved in the shooting of an unarmed black teenager and everything changes in an instant.
This one act could destroy more than just Riley and Jen`s friendship. As their community takes sides, so must Jen and Riley, and for the first time in their lives the lifelong friends find themselves on opposing sides.
But can anyone win a fight like this?
We Are Not Like Them is about friendship and love. It`s about prejudice and betrayal. It`s about standing up for what you believe in, no matter the cost.

Роман о том, какие проблемы существуют до сих пор в американском обществе, он непредвзято показывает существующие в обществе расизм, предрассудки, жестокость полиции, привилегии белых и предубеждения. Но в то же время это сильный и трогательный роман о дружбе, семье, о любви и потерях. История мощная, а тема актуальна...
