No Hiding in Boise
When Angie is awakened by a midnight call from an officer with the Boise Police Department, she thinks there must be a misunderstanding. The officer tells her that her husband was involved in a shooting at a local bar, but how can that be possible when her husband is sleeping right next to her? Except when she turns to wake him, he isn't there.
Tessa is the twenty-three-year-old bartender who escapes to a backroom storage closet during the shooting. When it comes to light that five people were killed, she is burdened with the question of why she survived.
Joyce wakes up to a knock at her front door, a knock she assumes is her wayward son, Jed, who must have lost his keys. It's not Jed, though. Two police officers tell her that Jed is dead, shot at the bar. Then they deliver even worse news: "We have reason to believe your son was the shooter."
So begins the story of three women tied together by tragic fateβa wife trying to understand why her now-comatose husband was frequenting a bar in the middle of the night, the young woman who her husband was apparently pursuing, and a mother who is forced to confront the reality of who her son was and who she is.
No Hiding in Boise explores the complexities of these interconnected lives amid the backdrop of an unfathomable tragedy.
