Work detail linking to a different book?

Title: The Bad Seed Presents: The Good, the Bad, and the Spooky
ISBN-10: 0062954547

After I added this book using "Add books" with a title search, I went to my Recently Added list and clicked on it to go to Change Cover.

There was a "Work details" section for a different title:

Work details
The Great Gilly Hopkins by Katherine Paterson (1978)

and all the available covers (and tags and reviews) were for that particular title.
Is this expected? Or is there a way to break this link/edit the Work details?
Thanks for any info.

Looks like a few minutes after I posted this, the problem has been resolved.
Transient problem or some lovely person fixed it for me? Thank you if so!
I guess I will change the status to Closed.

>1 deslivres5: The Bad Seed had been improperly combined with Gilly Hopkins. I've separated them for you, but if you see this again you can ask for help in the Combiners! group. https://www.librarything.com/ngroups/460/Combiners%21

Closing as not a bug.
