The Hidden Girl
Description of book
Sweeping and evocative, The Hidden Girl is a lost treasure from the author of The Seven Sisters series, Lucinda Riley. Discover this reimagined novel from an author loved by millions of readers worldwide.
You can’t alter destiny . . .
Born and raised in a small village on the Yorkshire moors, Leah Thompson grows more beautiful with each passing day. When she catches the attention of the influential, troubled Delancey family, she knows her life will never be the same again.
Years later, Leah takes the modelling world by storm, travelling from Milan to London and New York and living life in the lap of luxury. But her past follows her like a dark shadow, mysteriously intertwined with the tragic tale of two young siblings in Poland during the Second World War.
As two generations of secrets threaten to explode, Leah is haunted by a fatal, forgotten prophecy from her past, and must fight to challenge the destiny that has been mapped out for her in the stars . . .
Long before she became the bestselling author of The Seven Sisters series, Lucinda Riley wrote Hidden Beauty as Lucinda Edmonds. This standalone 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.

- I have loved every single minute of this book! How the characters are linked over generations was so brilliantly intertwined...I am so happy her son helped this book get republished (if you listen to the start of the audio book you will hear the back story 🥰)

It covers many quite shocking and touchy subjects, but is written so compassionately. I thought the narrator was utterly fantastic too.
The book mentions Haworth and the Yorkshire Moors, not 30 mins drive from where I live... and I found myself totally immersed in the story.
I highly recommend this book and will definlookforward to reading others by this brilliant authorBook★5
