Event Summary

Alfred A. Knopf announced the posthumous publication of 'Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice' by Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein's most prominent accusers. The 400-page book, co-authored with Amy Wallace, is scheduled for release on October 21. Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide in April at age 41, had completed the manuscript and expressed her 'heartfelt wish' for its release regardless of her circumstances. The memoir details her experiences in Jeffrey Epstein's sex-trafficking ring, including allegations against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and her interactions with Ghislaine Maxwell. The book has been vigorously fact-checked and legally vetted, and Alfred A. Knopf confirmed it contains no allegations against Donald Trump. Virginia Giuffre had previously reached an out-of-court settlement with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor in 2022 after suing him for sexual assault. She also dropped allegations against Alan Dershowitz in 2022.
