The FBI has released photographs and video of a group of Russian spies who were arrested and then expelled from the United States last year. This report is from Steve Kingstone:
Much of the material released by the FBI follows the classic Hollywood formula for espionage.
We see agents exchanging identical bags as they brush past each other, while another undercover spy retrieves a package hidden in the Washington undergrowth.
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. That was the moment Ms Chapman suspected her cover as an estate agent in New York was blown.
Soon afterwards, the FBI broke up the spy ring. Ten defendants pleaded guilty 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 middle-class lives often assuming the identities of Americans who had recently died.
The FBI case file offers an intriguing glimpse of 21st Century espionage. 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.
