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.

"Beauty and glamour meet deception and revenge in this electrifying novel by New York Times bestselling author Amanda Quick. Investigative apprentice Lyra Brazier, the newest resident of Burning Cove, is unsettled when her boss suddenly goes on a health retreat at an exclusive spa and disappears without another word. Lyra knows something has happened to Raina Kirk, and she is the only one who can track her down. The health spa is known for its luxurious offerings and prestigious clientele, and the wealthy, socialite background Lyra desperately wanted to leave behind is perfect for this undercover job. The agency brings in a partner and bodyguard for her, but she doesn't get the suave, pistol-packing private eye she expected. Simon Cage is a mild-mannered antiquarian book dealer with a quiet, academic air, and Lyra can't figure out why he was chosen as her partner. But it soon becomes clear when they arrive at the spa and pose as a couple: Simon has a unique gift that allows him to detect secrets, a skill that is crucial in finding Raina. The unlikely duo falls down a rabbit hole of twisted rumors and missing socialites, discovering that the health spa is a façade for something far darker than they imagined. With a murderer in their midst, Raina isn't the only one in grave danger--Lyra is next"--

It's the grand opening of Daybreak Island's cat café, where customers can get cozy with an assortment of friendly felines--and maybe even take one or a few home.
