Maggie Oliver is best known as the detective-turned-whistleblower who resigned from Greater Manchester Police in 2012 in order to expose the Rochdale grooming scandal.

Prior to that Maggie worked in the Serious Crime Division of GMP for many years and was commended for her work on countless gangland murders, shootings, kidnappings, rapes and witness protection jobs.

Her experiences on the Rochdale child sexual exploitation case were portrayed by Lesley Sharp in the BBC award-winning drama Three Girls, for which she acted as the programme consultant. The show was watched by over nine million people in 2017.

More recently Maggie has made high-profile appearances on Celebrity Big Brother - Year of the Woman and Loose Women as a part of their Never Too Late To Tell campaign. She is now an established broadcast commentator and speaker on current affairs and human rights. She is a doting mum and grandmother and resides in the north of England. This is her first book.
