Summary
Hunting Ghislaine tells the extraordinary, shocking story of Ghislaine Maxwell, the former partner of disgraced billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and the daughter of media baron Robert Maxwell.
Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess who suffered a tragedy, the death of her father, a war hero, a philanthropist, a good man, in suspicious circumstances. She fled to New York where she made a new life with a brilliant mathematician. Her name is Ghislaine Maxwell and her lover was Jeffrey Epstein. Through Jeffrey, and her family name, Ghislaine became friends with some of the most powerful people on earth, ex-President Bill Clinton and President-to-be Donald Trump and the second son of the Queen of England, Prince Andrew, the Duke of York.
But this is no fairy tale. Hunting Ghislaine sets out the other side of the story, and it's one of the darkest you will ever come across.
Ghislaine's father, Robert Maxwell, was a sadist, a war criminal, a monster. His cruelty deformed Ghislaine Maxwell long before she met Jeffrey Epstein. Her one-time lover was convicted for being a paedophile. So Ghislaine's life has been spent serving not one monster but two.
In Hunting Ghislaine, legendary investigative journalist John Sweeney uncovers the truth behind
this fairy tale story in reverse.

Sick and excellently written in equal measure
Hunting Ghislaine by @Johnsweeneyroar. This excellent book offers an unrivalled insight into the broken life of #GhislaineMaxwell, a girl raped by her father and then fallen into the clutches of #JeffreyEpstein who abuses her as her Father did. After this we all know, she was sent out to recruit young underage girls for Epstein and his nefarious purposes. This book is superb and shocking in equal measure. Sweeny has thoroughly researched his topics and written each page with equal fervour. 📚5/5🌟 #BookReview

Interesting listen
If I listen to an audiobook to the end in one stint then it's a sure-fire indication that it's holding my attention. Thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook and found it a fascinating listen. Early on I started to think that there was too much about Robert Maxwell in there but as the story progressed and this fell into context I felt that it was necessary to give an insight into Ghislaine Maxwell and what led to her becoming who she is. As John Sweeney points out, it is hard to feel any sympathy for her because she had so little for her victims. Would thoroughly recommend.

The JUST trial of This land Maxwell
Loved this audio.
Narration, fantastic along with the full story of Robert Maxwell and his well trained daughter.
Like father, like daughter is all that can be gleaned from this atrocious story.
I kept up as much as possible with the daily newspaper reporting of her trial, but this very well researched and attendance at the trial shows just how much this woman would do for Epstein and his money.
I hope a little black book will emerge in the future, exposing those who have escaped being named.
I wonder how much "slush money" has been paid to keep people quiet?
Brilliant journalism from John Sweeney.

What a great journalist John Sweeney is!
I had enjoyed John Sweeney's podcast on Ghislaine Maxwell. It was informative, he interviewed many people, it was good, but his book is superior to the podcast.
I also acquired the audio version which he reads, and again it's superior to the podcast which was nonetheless amongst the very best, if not the best on Ghislaine Maxwell.
It made me realise how talented he's as a writer.
I strongly recommend the book thoroughly researched. There's nothing about Ghislaine Maxwell as good as the book on the market, and believe me I've listened to all the podcasts, read all the articles and books on the topic.!
Bravo to the author.
