Publisher's Summary

Angie is awakened by a midnight call from an officer with the Boise Police Department and 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 when her husband is sleeping right next to her? But when she turns to wake him, he isn’t there.

Tessa is the 23-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 a 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 fate - a wife trying to understand why her now-comatose husband was frequenting a bar in the middle of the night, the young woman whom her husband was apparently pursuing, and a mother who is forced to confront the reality of who her son was and who she is.

Don't do it.

First I think you probably have to be American to find some kind of appreciation of this story. As someone who's most decidedly not American and who doesn't buy into the glamorization or trivialization of gun violence, it's incredibly off-putting on every level: from the casual acceptance of mass shootings to the attempt at romanticizing and idealizing the whole sordid mess while using every writer's cliche available to do it. I'm so sorry I spent money of this audiobook. My best advice to you: Don't do it.
