Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre's memoir will be published months after her death
Briefly

Virginia Roberts Giuffre played a central role in exposing a sex trafficking ring in which Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell exploited hundreds of minors and young women. A 400-page memoir, Nobody's Girl, will be published posthumously by Alfred A. Knopf on Oct. 21; Giuffre died by suicide at age 41 in Australia months earlier. Court records and earlier depositions describe repeated molestation and abuse that affected her early life and detail instances where adults who offered help became predators. The memoir recounts her struggle to escape, pursue accountability, and the connections to wealthy, powerful figures including a photograph with Prince Andrew.
Now Giuffre's memoir is poised to tell more of her story: It will be published posthumously, months after Giuffre died by suicide at age 41. Giuffre's 400-page memoir, Nobody's Girl, will come out on Oct. 21, according to Alfred A. Knopf. The publisher describes Giuffre as "the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace."
News of the book's publication comes months after Giuffre's death in April in Australia the country where she had created a new life for herself as a mother and housewife. "She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published," Knopf says. "Nobody's Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity."
