Sure, his entire Orthodox Jewish community has just picked up and moved to the quiet, mostly non-Jewish town of Tregaron, but Hoodie's world hasn't changed that much. He's got basketball to play, studies to avoid, and a supermarket full of delicious kosher snacks to eat. The people of Tregaron aren't happy that so many Orthodox Jews are moving in at once, but that's not Hoodie's problem. That is, until he meets and falls for Anna-Marie Diaz-O'Leary - who happens to be the daughter of the obstinate mayor trying to keep Hoodie's community out of the town. And things only get more complicated when Tregaron is struck by a series of antisemitic crimes that quickly escalate to deadly violence. As his community turns on him for siding with the enemy, Hoodie finds himself caught between his first love and the only world he's ever known.".

If we can share our joys within us without longing, if we can secretly divide our troubles without joy, if we can tell each other the truth by risking being the bad person, so that we can protect each other from wrongs, if we can draw the fine line of respect with sincerity, if we can accept each other as we are without judging each other, then we have a friendship worth the world. Such a friendship that we give as much as we receive, from childhood to death, is the greatest wealth that human beings can acquire, the greatest gift one can give oneself.
