When is The Hidden Girl being published?

Is The Hidden Girl part of the Seven Sisters series?

The Hidden Girl is a standalone novel from Lucinda Riley.

Long before she became the bestselling author of The Seven Sisters series, Lucinda Riley wrote Hidden Beauty as Lucinda Edmonds. This novel has been reworked and given new life as The Hidden Girl by Harry Whittaker, Lucinda’s son and co-author of Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt. 

‘After reading Mum’s original manuscript for The Hidden Girl, it brought back waves of admiration at the epic worlds she created with such ease and imagination. Just as with the Seven Sisters series, The Hidden Girl touches on themes of family secrets spanning generations and a long-forgotten prophecy from the past.’
