Publisher's Summary
Bloomsbury presents People Like Them by Samira Sedira, read by Susan Nezami.
Everything started one Saturday in July....
Anna and Constant Guillot and their two daughters live in the remote mountain village of Carmac. Everyone in Carmac knows each other, and most of its residents look alike – that is until Bakary and Sylvia Langlois arrive with their three children.
The new family’s impressive chalet and expensive cars are in stark contrast with the modesty of those of their neighbours, yet despite their initial differences, the Langlois and the Guillots form an uneasy friendship. But when both families begin experiencing financial troubles, the underlying class and racial tensions of their relationship come to a breaking point, and the unthinkable happens....
How could a seemingly ‘normal’ person commit an atrocious crime? How could that person's loved ones ever come to terms with it afterwards?
And how well can you really know your own spouse?
Critic Reviews
"People Like Them is disturbing and powerful. It explores the topics of racism and jealousy in a very subtle way. I loved it." (Leila Slimani, best-selling author of Lullaby)

Oh good story
I really enjoyed that. Well written and beautifully narrator. Why he did what he did is a discussion to make. I looked for another book by Sedita but no good. Oh well.
