One young woman Ward talked to had been invited by Ghis

James PATTERSON One young woman Ward talked to had been invited by Ghis- laine Maxwell to attend a party at Epstein’s town house. There, the woman had noticed, female guests far outnumbered the male guests. “These were not women you'd see at Upper East Side din- ners.” the woman had said. “Many seemed foreign and dressed a little bizarrely.” “This same guest also attended a cocktail party thrown by Maxwell that Prince Andrew attended, which was filled, she says, with young Russian models,” Ward wrote. “‘Some of the guests were horrified? the woman says.” Another source, one who had worked with Epstein, said, “He’s reckless, and he’s gotten more SO. Money does that to you. He’s breaking the oath he made to himself—that he would never do anything that would expose him in the media.
