July 10, 2025By Erin Somers

Raynor Winn, author of ‘The Salt Path,’ has posted a long response on her website to allegations of fraud made in a recent Observer article. The article uncovered embezzlement accusations from her past and alleges that parts of ‘The Salt Path’ are fabrications.

Penguin Says It Did Its Due Diligence On ‘The Salt Path’

July 9, 2025By Erin Somers

Further to Monday’s story about fraud accusations against Raynor Winn’s bestselling memoir The Salt Path, Penguin commented that they undertook “all the necessary pre-publication due diligence.” They also said they had not received “any concerns about the book’s content” before The Observer investigation. The Observer piece alleges that the book contains substantial fabrication, and omits that Winn embezzled from her employer and was involved in a fraudulent money raising scheme, among many other accusations.
