The Lugano Archive

Damon goes to Lugano — his first operation outside the United States in the series, in a city that holds the answer to a question the investigation has been approaching for two years: what was the institutional silence originally protecting, and what was it supposed to become? The archive belongs to a Swiss-Italian family whose patriarch was one of the 1961 governance concept's authors and whose granddaughter, Elena Ferrante-Marchetti, has been cataloging its sixty thousand documents for three years without fully understanding what she has. She has found one document she knows is significant. She has been trying to reach someone in the American federal investigative system for two years. She has finally reached the right person.
