Epstein accuser, Virginia Giuffre, pens a memoir that gets released months post her passing.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who tragically took her own life on April 25, 2023, at the age of 41, will have her story told through a posthumous memoir titled "Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice." The book, co-written with award-winning journalist Amy Wallace, is set to be published by Alfred A. Knopf on October 21, 2023.
Giuffre, who previously accused Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew, and others of being part of Epstein's sex-trafficking ring, completed the manuscript for the 400-page book before her death. The memoir promises to be a raw and shocking journey, detailing Giuffre's struggle to break free from her harrowing experiences.
In the book, Giuffre shares new details about her time with Epstein, Maxwell, and their associates, marking the first time she speaks publicly about them since her out-of-court settlement with Prince Andrew in 2022. Despite Trump's mention in the memoir, Giuffre makes no allegations of abuse against him.
Amy Wallace, Giuffre's co-author, is an accomplished journalist whose work has appeared in prestigious publications like The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times. Wallace has also collaborated on two previous books, including Pixar co-founder Ed Catmull's "Creativity, Inc." and former General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt's "Hot Seat."
Knopf Publisher and Editor-in-Chief, Jordan Pavlin, has described "Nobody's Girl" as a "raw and shocking" journey. The book has been fact-checked and legally vetted to ensure accuracy.
In an email to Amy Wallace a few weeks before her death, Giuffre expressed her desire for the book to be published "regardless" of her circumstances. The email also stated that the book's content aims to shed light on systemic failures that allow the trafficking of vulnerable individuals across borders.
Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in a New York City jail cell in 2019, and his former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted on sex trafficking and other charges in late 2021. Maxwell's trial revealed graphic details of her role in Epstein's sex-trafficking ring.
Prince Andrew had previously denied Giuffre's allegations, but in 2022, they reached an out-of-court settlement after she had sued him for sexual assault. Details about the Epstein associates featured in "Nobody's Girl" have not been disclosed.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre had previously stated that she was caught up in Epstein's sex-trafficking ring and was exploited by Britain's Prince Andrew and other influential men. The memoir is expected to provide a powerful account of her experiences and her fight for justice.
