Ghislaine Maxwell : the of America's most notorious socialite / by Cawthorne, Nigel,1951-author.;
Ghislaine Maxwell had everything - model looks, connections, charm, a billionaire father, adoring siblings - yet on 2 July 2020 she was arrested by the FBI on multiple underage-sex charges. Find out the breath-taking real story behind the headlines, programs and documentaries. Ghislaine Maxwell's life of privilege was unimaginable. Her world was not only made up of the Clintons, top billionaires, Hollywood stars and, in Australian Katherine Keating, but also of princes, princesses, dukes and duchesses, all as regular friends - including university friend Prince Andrew, the favourite son of the Queen. Yet, she still wanted more. Ghislaine met shadowy billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and amassed a fortune of almost 30 million dollars. Her arrest by the FBI in July 2020 - almost a year to the day of Epstein's second arrest on sex charges - proved a stinging fall from grace as 30 million dollars bail was refused. Ghislaine Maxwell leaves no stone unturned and is the first investigation based on all new sources available, including the lawsuit brought by Cairns-based Virginia Giuffre. An explosive true story, Ghislaine Maxwell is a gripping tale of wealth, power, and allegations and counter allegations in a murky tale at the heart of the global jetset.
