The explosive, behind-the-scenes account of the criminal trial of
the century. In November 2021, Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of
five counts of sex-trafficking of minors, and now faces 55 years in
prison for the role she played in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse of four
girls. The trial was meticulously covered by journalist and legal
reporter Lucia Osborne-Crowley, one of only four reporters allowed
into the courtroom every day. The Lasting Harm is her account of
that trial, a gripping true crime drama and a blistering critique
of a criminal justice system ill-equipped to deliver justice for
abuse survivors, no matter the outcome. Centring the stories of
four women and their testimonies, and supplemented by extra
material to which Osborne-Crowley has exclusive access, The Lasting
Harm brings this incendiary trial to life, questions our age-old
appetite for crime and punishment and offers a new blueprint for
meaningful reparative justice.
