No Hiding in Boise tells the stories of three women brought together by a mass shooting at a bar in Boise, Idaho. Angie's husband, Cale, was at the bar during the shooting (an outing he kept secret from his wife) and is now in a coma; Tessa was tending bar on the fateful night and believes Cale saved her life; and Joyce is the mother of the shooter who must come to terms with her role in the tragedy.
