Laura McHugh Publishes Fifth Novel, Reflects on Career
Now, McHugh has published her much anticipated fifth work of fiction, Safe and Sound, which debuted on April 23. In its pages, young sisters, Amelia and Kylee, are asleep in their beds one night in small-town Beaumont, Missouri while their cousin, Grace, is babysitting. They wake up to find she has vanished from the house, leaving a horrifying scene in her wake. Six years later, the girls are nearing the end of high school and envisioning the nearly unobtainable dream of life outside of Beaumont when human remains are found.
