The UK's bestselling memoir. The book that's changing the world. An
empowering true story of surviving abuse and fighting for justice.
‘Make no mistake: this is a book about power, corruption, industrial-scale
sex abuse and the way in which institutions sided with the perpetrator over his
victims. . . . But it is also a book about how a young woman becomes a hero. .
. . Important [and] courageous.’ GUARDIAN
The world knows Virginia Roberts Giuffre as Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine
Maxwell’s most outspoken victim: the woman whose decision to speak out helped
send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew
catalyzed his fall from grace. This is her story.
In April 2025, Giuffre took her own life. She left behind a memoir written in
the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it
published. Nobody’s Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl
who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity.
Here, Giuffre offers an unsparing and definitive account of her time with
Epstein and Maxwell, who trafficked her and others to numerous prominent men.
She also details the molestation she suffered as a child, as well as her daring
escape from Epstein and Maxwell’s grasp at nineteen. Giuffre remade her life
from scratch and summoned the courage to waive anonymity and not only hold her
abusers to account but also advocate for other victims. The pages of Nobody’s
Girl preserve her voice―and her legacy―forever.
Nobody’s Girl is an astonishing affirmation of Giuffre’s unshakable will―first,
to claw her way out of victimhood, and then to shine light on wrongdoing and
fight for a safer, fairer world. Equal parts intimate and fierce, it is a
remarkable narrative of fortitude in the face of depravity and despair.

empowering. It speaks to the thousands of other victims out there about how to
start fighting back.’ EMILY MAITLIS
