If this were a Ludlumesque spy novel,

there would be two reports: the one for the general public....and the other one...with the really horrifying stuff that will never ever make it to the light of day. Think of the finale of the first Indian Jones film: the Ark of the Covenant being hidden in a giant warehouse for thousands of years in an innocuous wooden crate. The real material, the intercepts, photos, video, bank records, all of it, buried for time immemorial.

That's what I would write...

I hadn't thought of Ludlum for a while, but right on.

This report will be serialized in a year or two.

The OSC has prosecuted key players in the report. Now, the rest of the report . . . . . . . .
