Summary
This document is a page from a book prologue (likely by Edward Jay Epstein, given the file prefix 'Epst') produced for the House Oversight Committee. It details Edward Snowden's activities in May and June 2013, specifically his communications with Washington Post journalist Barton Gellman and his arrival in Hong Kong. The text focuses on the author's investigation into Snowden's 'missing' eleven days in Hong Kong, relying on interviews with journalist Keith Bradsher and information regarding a mysterious intermediary known as the 'carer' who handled Snowden's logistics.
