The extraordinarily powerful and unforgettable memoir by the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the woman who stood up and spoke out about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell


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. But her story has never been told in full, in her own words—until now.

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 not only hold her abusers to account but also advocate for other victims. The narrative 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.

Critic reviews

Nobody’s Girl is both devastating and uplifting. It tells the story of how easily a life can be snapped in half by powerful abusers - and the enormous pain it takes to rebuild a broken human soul . But it’s also a tale of justice , what can be achieved when a woman refuses to be silenced, refuses to be blamed. And is willing to call out the complicity of evil around us.
Virginia’s voice soars throughout this memoir - fearless and frank - angry and empowering. It speaks to the thousands of other victims out there about how to start fighting back.

(Emily Maitlis, journalist, broadcaster, author)
This astonishing book left me reaching for breath …it is impossible to forget the glare of Virginia Giuffre’s headlight exposure of an iniquitous abuse system that can exist and destroy within plain sight. And it is impossible to ignore the urgency of Giuffre’s rallying cry to us all to unsilence the secret code of self-protection wielded by the powerful, the rich and the regal. (Juliet Nicolson, author of The Book of Revelation)
A devastating exposé of power, corruption and abuse ... lays bare the life-wrecking impact of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes – but it is also the story of how a young woman becomes a hero ... important, courageous, tragically posthumous (Emma Brockes)
The most important (but, honestly, the most traumatic) book I’ve read all year. As painful as this book is to read, please, please do. (Sam Baker)
Startling ... It feels somewhat like a chance to testify both on the shocking events that shaped her life and the struggles she faced before death ... Nobody's Girl demands that we read with caution, discretion and sensitivity. (Micha Frazer-Carroll)
By retelling from her own perspective, the salacious details of what became tabloid headlines ... Instead she shows the reader the stark truth of who she was then ... It is a personal triumph that she chose to speak up and a tragedy that doing so came at such cost. (Stephanie Merritt)
Takes us into unimaginable realms of human suffering ...devastating. (Sarah Ditum)
Nobody’s Girl is not just a memoir – it’s a template for how difficult it is for victims who have been abused once to escape the cycle. (Rachel Cunliffe)
All stars
Most relevant
I had to read this story because I knew Virginia was telling the truth from the begining
It is so sad what has happened to her
And all of these so called wealthy people who have abused her need to be brought to justice and stop the lies!! they need to ask themselves ..... would you like this to be done to your granddaughter or daughter??
It's because of you that Virginia's children do not have a mother now.
Very moving story but the Truth

The Truth

Virginia simply tells of a shattering history of rapes, abuse and disregard.
How a sweet, gusty little girl, had her hopes and imaginings for a happy life, stolen long before she was conned out of all her future escapes.

Trap after devastating trap is her context.

Very impactful! A strong woman,who list the terrible abuse she went through! Rest in peace Virgina I’m sorry that you had to experience this trauma!

A brave clear account

This is a very honest account of a true survivor, my heartbreaks and tears filled my eyes knowing she is no longer here for her children and their future children, she is very forgiving of what was done when she was a very young child, we can never let this evil continue in our world and those accountable should never rest and think now she’s gone the problem has disappeared

Shining light

this lady changed the world, and then she died, it's out duty to purchase it and contribute to the message / inprove the lives of vulnerable women - narrator was unfortunately very whiney and breathy, i felt the author herself would be less whiny

monumental

Virginia 's struggles are sad and, though she is gone now, I hope the guilty are eventually brought to justice ...unfortunately NOT holding my breath :-(

The fact that the rich and powerful still manage to cover up their crimes sickens me and the exploitation continues...!

I didn't know much about this story before reading this memoir.
Having read it, it is horrifying that this kind of child abuse and trafficking goes on, and that people get away with it.
These girls lives are destroyed by these evil monsters who treat them as dolls to be cast away once damaged.
I am very glad that the journalist wrote the introduction for us to understand more about what happened once the book was finished and what lead to her suicide.
It is incomprehensible that her husband should also abuse her after everythingshe had been through. But as they say, kids who are abused as children often end up in abusive relationships.
I believe that this book should be read by everyone to understand the truth.

So sad

This book is a heartbreaking story that is so deeply needed to be heard! I’m glad that Virginia had the opportunity to share her life and selflessly spoke her truth in the name of others taking strength and comfort.

Heartbreaking and brave!

The must-read book of our time. This trailblazing, courageous lady has exposed the abuses of not just young women but of power at the highest levels and the ways that law enforcement, the justice system and the media were skewed and corrupted by bad actors who sought to cover themselves and discredit accusers. It is not an easy read — the abuse descriptions are graphic and revolting, but necessary to understand the level of trauma and exploitation VG has suffered. I wish she was still with us so that she may be congratulated and to keep shining her light. May she rest peacefully and her important work continue.

Rest peacefully, brave lady

So glad her voice will always be heard. Painful but essential. Thank you for all you achieved for everyone. If only she was still here.

Powerful and meaningful
