The Missing Sister

Written by Lucinda Riley

Narrated by Caroline Lennon and Georgia Maguire

From the Sunday Times number one bestselling author Lucinda Riley, The Missing Sister is the seventh instalment in the multimillion-copy epic series The Seven Sisters.

They'll search the world to find her.

The six D'Aplièse sisters have each been on their own incredible journey to discover their heritage, but they still have one question left unanswered: who and where is the seventh sister?

They only have one clue – an image of a star-shaped emerald ring. The search to find the missing sister will take them across the globe – from New Zealand to Canada, England, France and Ireland – uniting them all in their mission to complete their family at last.

In doing so, they will slowly unearth a story of love, strength and sacrifice that began almost one hundred years ago, as other brave young women risk everything to change the world around them.


The Missing Sister is the seventh instalment in Lucinda Riley's multimillion copy epic series.

Lucinda Riley

Lucinda Riley was born in 1965 in Ireland, and after an early career as an actress in film, theatre and television, wrote her first book aged twenty-four. Her books have been translated into thirty-seven languages and continue to strike an emotional chord with all cultures around the world. The Seven Sisters series specifically has become a global phenomenon, creating its own genre, and there are plans to create a seven-season TV series. Her books have been nominated for numerous awards, including the Italian Bancarella prize, The Lovely Books award in Germany, and the Romantic Novel of the Year award. In 2020 she received the Dutch Platinum award for sales over 300,000 copies for a single novel in one year – an award last won by J K Rowling for Harry Potter. In collaboration with her son Harry Whittaker, she also devised a series of books for children called the Guardian Angels series, based on stories told to her children whenever they were facing a challenging situation. Harry then wrote the books, and they are now being published internationally. Though she brought up her four children mostly in Norfolk in England, in 2015 she fulfilled her dream of buying a remote farmhouse in West Cork, Ireland, which she always felt was her spiritual home, and indeed this was where her last five books were written. Lucinda was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 and died on June 11th 2021, surrounded by her family.

Reviews for The Missing Sister

[Tracey Barr · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Have enjoyed listening to all the books so far but the narrators voice bugged me in this one as its an Australian accent when the main character is supposed to be kiwi.

[Kanks75 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Can’t wait for the next book to get the conclusion.

[Judy Nicholls · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Really a bit long and ending with yet another cliffhanger!

[Mich Durnez · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Loved it! Was so great hearing about all the sisters in one book and how they were doing after having had discovered thier families! Can't WAIT to start reading the final book!!

[Erigerta Bani · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I am always amazed by Lucinda Riley ! That’s why i have read more than 15-20 of her books . Can’t wait for 11 May 2023 ?

[Lindie Claassens · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Oh my goodness, the suspense is killing me! This one is the best by far! So sadden about the loss of Lucinda Riley. Absolutely loved her books.

[quiettea · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Like the others in this series, it is just an incredible story!!!

[Jennifer van den Dool · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Well written but story loses plausibilty, and some parts are belaboured - less is more, especially where angst is in play

[Marilyn Eisbrouch · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I Loved this book, as well as the entire series. The Seven Sisters. Feel awful learning of Lucinda Riley’s’ early death. Will look at the rest of her books, and hope that her son or someone will complete Atlas’ - Pa Salts’s story.

[Deepa Budhoo · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Yeah… no.. sorry. The beginning was just like some bad slapstick comic. I put the audio on 1.5 to get through the book. Again the past story was interesting. But the rest…meh.. I did like the plot twist on the end. I really really reaaaaally wanted to love this book, but I can’t.

[Laurel · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I couldn't figure out why this book was so slow and meandering never going anywhere until the very last chapter. It's a lead up to next year's book. Although it put me to sleep several times, I persevered really wanting to know the protagonist's birth story. What a cheat all I got was a name I'd already figured out and the promised of a story to be published in 2022. Totally unworthy of the author and unfair to the reader.

[David Bessen · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I like this book very much, it is really interesting and well thought out. Can’t wait for the next one to be published this year!

[Andrea · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

This recording is a hot mess. Skipped parts and ended without actually completing the story

[Stephanie Scott · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I loved all the 7 Sister stories and read 3 books and listened to the rest. The accents and narrator took me to a world far from here and made the story real!! Cannot wait for the story of Atlas?

[Wendy Holmgren · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I loved it. Excellent narration and an enthralling story with so many twists. The characters are so realistic and intricately crafted

[AMF Hilferink · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Nice to meet all d'Applièse sisters again. Yet another exciting frame story in a historic setting. And yet another cliffhanger... Can't wait to read how the story will continue in the fall of 2022!

[Juanita · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

simply fantastic - story-telling for adults at its very best.

[Danae Bye · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

A great book! She did a great job of switching between characters and keeping it easy to follow along.
