Prince Andrew: The End of the Monarchy and Epstein

Did the palace mishandle the Epstein Affair?

Buckingham Palace's greatest fear came true when the FBI arrested Prince Andrew's former friend Jeffrey Epstein—a convicted felon with secret-service connections—on charges of under-age sex trafficking. Just before the marriage of Kate and Wills, a snapshot of Andrew with his arm around the naked midriff of Epstein's most implacable and articulate victim had surfaced. Despite sending stringent defamation warnings, the palace proved powerless to contain the threat to the monarchy.

Prince Andrew: The End of the Monarchy and Epstein investigates the story of the key players, allegations and counter-allegations in this unique, high-stakes royal drama. It provides a gripping and uncommon insight into the secret privileges enjoyed by billionaires, global power brokers and royalty. Transcending the life of one man, the story characterises a whole institution and its precipitous loss of trust.
