Sinopse
'Powerful, vivid and affecting' DAVID NICHOLLS
'Urgent, necessary and courageous' ELIZABETH DAY
'Brilliantly unsettling' GUARDIAN
'Will make you think about trauma in a new light' EVENING STANDARD
'I understand – and sympathise with – the feeling you might have that you already know the Jeffrey Epstein story. But I am not here to tell you a story about Jeffrey Epstein, or even Ghislaine Maxwell. I am here to tell you the stories of ten women, many of whom have never spoken at length before, about the real impact of sexual trauma on their lives'
In November 2021, Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of five counts of sex-trafficking of minors, and now faces twenty 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 the only 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.
Giving voice to four women and their testimonies, and supplemented by exclusive interviews, 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.

'We don't need another book about rich men. The book we need is this one: centering the stories of vulnerable teenage girls and how they were used up and thrown away by those rich men' Jolyon Maugham, Director of the Good Law Project
'Lucia Osborne-Crowley’s vital work is driven integrity, a desire to bear witness, a dedication to the stories, experiences and truths of those who so often go unheard and unheeded' Kieran Goddard, author of I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning
'Lucia Osborne-Crowley has a deep commitment to telling survivor stories – and telling them well. Lucia is a courageous silence-breaker: she broke the silence by sharing her own story and now devotes her skills to help others tell theirs. We need more journalists like her' Jennifer Robinson, award-winning barrister
