About this audiobook

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The unforgettable memoir by the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the woman who dared to take on Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell

“Make no mistake: this is a book about power, corruption, industrial-scale sex abuse and the way in which institutions sided with the perpetrator over his victims. . . . But it is also a book about how a young woman becomes a hero. . . . Important [and] courageous.” —The Guardian


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 pages 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.

I was molested by a family member. but I never told anyone. my mother as strong as she portrayed herself to be, she has always been frail. And I couldn't bear to hurt her as well. And also there was a fear of her not believing me. And now she is fighting Leukemia, and Dementia is setting in. I have dealt with it and done therapy. And I'm a better person and in a better place. I just don't want to lay that news on her now at this age and stage of her life. it would solve nothing.

I was molested as a little girl. I was lucky enough to find a great dr. to help me come face to face with my problems. I found that finally admitting to what happened broke the guilt I harbored for so long and it wasn't my fault. when I start to think about the past I get on my knees and pray.i tell the lord that I can't handle this by myself then he takes over. I was blessed to find Dr. Amanda Lewton and the lord.
