Much of the material released發佈 by the FBI follows the classic Hollywood formula for espionage.
We see agents exchanging identical相同的 bags as they brush past擦身而過 each other, while another undercover spy retrieves搜索 a package hidden in the Washington undergrowth草叢.
The glamorous Anna Chapman is filmed shopping in a department store, and having coffee with a man who she believed to be a Russian handler but who in fact was an FBI infiltrator滲入. That was the moment Ms Chapman suspected her cover as an estate房地產 agent in New York was blown炸毀.
Soon afterwards事後, the FBI broke up the spy ring. Ten defendants被告 pleaded guilty認罪 to acting as foreign agents, before being exchanged last July for four Russians who'd been jailed in their own country for spying for the West.
Members of the US-based group had gathered public information and networked on behalf of Moscow, while leading suburban郊區 middle-class lives often assuming the identities of假身份 Americans who had recently died.
The FBI case file offers an intriguing glimpse of耐人尋味 21st Century espionage間諜. But it remains to be seen whether the images prove as popular as others of Anna Chapman. Now a successful television presenter, the former spy has appeared with very little cover in men's magazines.
