Betrayal in Black

Summary

Pulled over in America? When you're white, you might get a ticket. When you're black, you might end up dead. In a fictional Michigan town, a man is pulled over by the local police. The driver wonders, “What did I do wrong?” The officer asks for ID; the driver casually mentions he legally carries a gun. The officer panics. Confusion reigns, shots ring out, an innocent man lays bleeding to death, and the incident is captured on video.  The shooting becomes the national headline: The dead man is black - the shooter is white. A community is thrown into chaos. Protesters on both sides of the racial divide take to the streets. A widow struggles to make sense of senseless tragedy. She turns to high-profile trial lawyer Zachary Blake. Together, they dare to fight city hall. Will the police lie to protect the status quo?  Small Great Things meets The Hate U Give in Mark M. Bello's explosive new social justice legal thriller Betrayal in Black.
