      In 1961, a beautiful 19-year-old girl had a short affair with the Minister for War, John Profumo. Within two years, this led to the downfall of Harold Macmillans government, as she had also been having an affair with a Russian diplomat, and Profumo had lied to Parliament. But the social impact was greater than any political legacy: sex was now on everyones lips, and the press had discovered that it could, and would, expose the private lives of public figures. This is the lifes journey of a woman whom history has refused to let go, of her enormous personal sacrifices, and of her unstinting resolve.
