Description
Book SynopsisBuckingham Palace's greatest fear came true when the FBI arrested Prince Andrew's friend Jeffrey Epstein on charges of under-age sex trafficking. Not Long after the FBI also arrested Andrew's childhood friend Ghislaine Maxwell on Epstein related charges. The book caused a world-wide sensation in 2020 and investigates the story of the key players and allegations and counter-allegations in this unique, high-stakes royal drama. It provides a gripping and behind-the-scenes insight into the hidden privileges enjoyed by global power brokers, royalty and billionaires and the fraught relationship between Andrew and his older brother, heir to the throne Prince Charles. Transcending the life of one man, it characterises a whole institution-Buckingham Palace, hitherto one of the world's most respected institutions.
