Chasing Ghislaine

De: Vicky Ward
Narrado por: Vicky Ward
Prueba por $0.00

In an explosive Audible Original investigative series, executive produced by James Patterson, veteran journalist and New York Times best-selling author Vicky Ward chronicles her 19-year quest to uncover what - or who - is behind Jeffrey Epstein’s wealth, influence, and criminality. You’ll hear testimonies from over 20 individuals with ties to Epstein, as well as previously off-the-record transcripts and exclusive conversations with Epstein himself.

Ward’s journey began in 2002 when she profiled Epstein for Vanity Fair. At the time, she didn’t realize just how close she came to uncovering the financier’s web of secrets, connections, and wealth that enabled his sexual crimes and shielded him from justice for decades. As she investigated further, Ward would unearth ties to a criminal empire of money-laundering, gun-running, and international espionage.

Amidst all the bold-faced names, the saga repeatedly intertwines with that of a single enigmatic figure: Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-lover, former employee, and alleged co-conspirator. The disgraced heiress, who now awaits trial herself, may hold the key to unlocking the truth behind Epstein.

    Prologue, Episode 1: Ghislaine Behind Bars
    Jul 15 2021
    In 2002, veteran reporter Vicky Ward was assigned what seemed like an easy story: Find the source of Jeffery Epstein’s money. The story turned hard, though, when she stumbled on early sexual abuse allegations about Jeffrey and Ghislaine Maxwell and Vicky found her professional and personal safety under threat. In Jeffrey’s absence, Vicky now chases Ghislaine’s secrets: her relationship to Jeffrey, what she knows of the building of his web of international elites, and the fate of his fortune.

not as focused on Ghislaine as promised by the title and promo. It feels mainly focused on Epstein himself at most turns. Still a worthy and interesting listen.

informative and well done, but...

Pretty much as expected, Ward’s tale of the inner workings of this 21st Century Svengali’s World is filled with all kinds of trails through a maze of schemes, connections and names. Some of them are fascinating food for speculation, some are dead ends and some are rabbit holes we’ll never see the bottom of.

There are probably some interesting disclosures. Ward is definitely comfortable in the rarefied air of Big Money and High Society World most of us will never see, so that holds our interest, but really, after finishing her story, this reader feels too late the remorse usually reserved for the last bite of a meal of empty calories.

Epstein was a greedy, charming, manipulative monster. Ghislaine was a damaged victim trying desperately to please her Daddy. Many innocent lives were sacrificed. Vicky Ward can sure stick with a story. And we’ll never get to the bottom of this Twisted Secret World. #SAD! Three stars for the telling.

Interesting but inconclusive.

This is interesting but seems quite shy of the true grit of Epstein's role as a person who got dirt on rich and powerful men by trafficking young girls. Who employed him, ultimately? Why did Ghislaine go along? Was she employed, too? And why do you discuss everyone but a man so close to Epstein that he gave him a character reference: Donald Trump?

why no mention of Donald Trump?

this was an interesting listen. I recommend it to anyone with some time over who wants to know more about these fascinating and scary people.
