Description
'Excruciating.' Sunday Times
On 19 February 2026, the British monarchy was rocked to its core by the arrest of Andrew - Charles III's brother who once was 2nd in line to the throne - on his 66th birthday. He was released without charges, but all of a sudden Andrew (no longer a prince but plain Mountbatten-Windsor) had put the monarchy and its extensive privileges on trial. Downfall unravels his dramatic entanglement with Jeffrey Epstein and how it exposed palace privilege as being synonymous with hypocrisy. Drawing on FBI files, leaked emails, and Andrew's "Siberian" exile, it reveals what Andrew's disgrace means for the monarchy as a result of its co-responsibility. What price will the monarchy pay?More details
