The show typically covers one of Diana Gabaldon's novels at a time, but because season six was shorter than originally planned due to the coronavirus complications (it was supposed to be 12 episodes long), it's likely that the new season will continue to dramatise the events of book six, A Breath of Snow and Ashes as there's still plenty more plot to go.
