This is why it absolutely essential in my opinion to have the views of people like Maria, Pedro, Alex and Rosemary, because with the best will in the world, we sometimes miss things like "confidencial", most of us would just take it at the words face value, of course when it is pointed out in this context it opens up a much deeper meaning and we begin to understand the true significance.

Well, I think that there is more about this book cover than the 'confidential' word. As matter of fact, the whole thing is, if I'm not mistaken, the reproduction of a folder, the very same type PJ could use to keep the proofs, indices, results of their inquiries. As an 'under investigation' information folder it would be marked confidential, worn out (see the right upper corner?), eventually have a picture of the victim. Also, it would say which inquest (number, code) it refered to and possibly the name of the person in charge. So, giving the book the appearance of a real police folder is an attempt to give that s*** container the strength and the respectability that a police inquiry would transmit to any reader. More, it is a revolting attempt of saying that these are actual facts and findings.

Once more, the habit doesn't make the monk, as we say around here.
