My Book, NAKED LIES, is Out NOW: The LA Launch & an Exclusive Video Message from Ghislaine Maxwell's Brother Kevin
It's been a busy fortnight here in sun-slapped California with Jessica Reed Kraus; bookmaking, beaches, networking, planning and plotting. Last night in Hollywood, we finally released Naked Lies.
In a speak easy-inspired cocktail bar on Santa Monica Boulevard,
through a secret door concealed behind a polished panel perfectly blended into the high gloss, walnut wood-wrapped wall,
there is a ‘secret’ 1920s gloom-glamour room, in which Jessica Reed Kraus last night kindly hosted the launch of my book, Naked Lies.
Jessica, who has been closely covering the Epstein and Maxwell cases for many many years on Instagram and on her Substack, has been truly fantastic in helping me to promote this book (and to get the truth of the Epstein Scandal out to the public). She’s opened up her wonderful home, her office, and her precious time, along with the time of her awesome team, to help launch Naked Lies, and I’m extremely grateful to her and to her awesome colleague Alicia Tang.
The book can now be purchased on Amazon, Apple Books, IngramSpark, and Barnes & Noble - or by clicking here.
Jessica’s going to be posting out the full video of the launch party very soon. In the meantime, below is the press release for Naked Lies and an exclusive video from Kevin Maxwell.
I’ll be back on here tomorrow with some further updates and exclusives. Thanks for your support!

PRESS RELEASE
NAKED LIES
Employees Only. Santa Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood
One woman held the key to understanding the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
Virginia Giuffre. If not for Virginia’s allegations, it’s probable that Epstein wouldn’t have died in prison; a British Prince wouldn’t have become a social pariah; Ghislaine Maxwell wouldn’t have been imprisoned for 20 years; and the most powerful man in the world, Donald Trump, wouldn’t have been wrongfully placed under suspicion. Virginia’s wide-reaching, life-destroying claims also made her a multi-millionaire. But, caught up in the sensationalist witch hunt, no-one stopped to ask a very simple question.
What if she was lying?
NAKED LIES is a story about truth and lies, money and media manipulation, power and corruption. It is the culmination of a five-year international investigation incorporating a forensic analysis of evidence and Jay Beecher’s exclusive interviews with key witnesses, accusers, and the accused.
Beecher travelled the world gathering new evidence (some of which has been included in Ghislaine Maxwell’s ongoing habeas petition), recording new allegations, and highlighting co-conspirators whose crimes against children went under the radar. His book, NAKED LIES, tells the true story of Jeffrey Epstein, how Epstein acquired his wealth and powerful connections, and how his sexual perversions created a media-driven mythos that has swallowed up reputations whole. NAKED LIES also includes secret audio recordings, previously unseen witness statements, and exclusive interviews with Epstein’s brother, with Maxwell’s siblings, with Trump’s former lawyer, with Giuffre’s inner circle and fellow accusers, & many more.
For the first time, the true, unreported story behind the Epstein scandal is finally laid bare.

EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF ENDORSEMENT FROM KEVIN MAXWELL
Hello, my name is Kevin Maxwell. I am Ghislaine Maxwell’s brother. At the age of 60, my sister was sentenced to 20 years in prison, a punishment I believe resting on a deeply flawed case and a dangerous public narrative. Among much else, Jay Beecher’s book, Naked Lies, shows, in my view conclusively, that she was wrongly convicted.
I’m with you today to thank Jay for his groundbreaking work and Jessica Reed Kraus and Substack for making today’s event possible. In a scandal defined by heat rather than light, they are, to my mind, much-needed truth-tellers.
Naked Lies is a forensic work. Its tagline is bold: that almost everything you know about the Epstein affair is untrue. But the evidence it assembles demands to be confronted, not dismissed. The book argues that one woman launched a campaign of untruths that became a global sensation.
It told stories of sexual exploitation and trafficking that didn’t happen and conjured a sex-based client list that didn’t exist. The moral outrage that followed was real, and so were the Czechs. Faced with the threat of being dragged through the courts as collaborators in a terrible story, many wealthy individuals and institutions chose to pay rather than fight.
Total compensation is, I believe, heading towards $1 billion, with some lawyers, key drivers of the scandal, reportedly collecting up to 40% in fees. Jay first came to our attention in 2020 when he wrote a blog called “We Must Talk About Virginia.” Using material available to any newsroom in the world, he showed Virginia Giuffre to be a venal and unreliable witness.
The astounding thing is that this material has been, and is, in plain sight. Yet in the scramble for legal fees, as well as viewers, readers, and the associated advertising revenue, the truth has been treated as an optional extra. Jay then paused his work on Epstein and turned to another theatre of distortion: war.
From the front line in Ukraine, he filed some 600 reports at considerable personal risk. That experience sharpened his eye for propaganda, for convenient stories that don’t survive contact with the facts. When he returned to the Epstein saga, the result was naked lies. The book exculpates the former Prince Andrew.
It argues that the allegations of sexual crimes involving many famous names were not just exaggerated but fundamentally venal fantasies. If that analysis is correct, Naked Lies deserves the highest awards that investigative journalism can offer. I’m not a journalist, a prosecutor, or a judge. I’m simply a brother. But I have watched as a narrative has hardened into dogma, as doubt is treated as heresy, and as my sister has become a symbol rather than a defendant.
Jay Beecher, Jessica Reed Kraus, and the Substack platform have done something unfashionable. They have asked awkward questions and followed the evidence where it leads. For that, from the bottom of my heart, I thank them.







At last a guy who knows what hes talking about, virginia giuffre fooled you all...except his team and a few british people, there is more to come from a first hand witness in the UK
