In the early 1990s, Lombardi began researching the conspiracies, including the BCCI, the Harken Energy scandal, and the Savings and Loan scandal. He accumulated thousands of index cards that began to overwhelm his ability to deal with them, so to cope, he began assembling them into physical outlines, and then into hand-written diagrams, which he called Narrative Structures.[1] They are structurally similar to sociograms – a type of graph drawing used in the field of social network analysis. His works include:
- Chicago Outfit
- Meyer Lansky
- The P2 conspiracy, Michele Sindona, Roberto Calvi
- World Finance Corporation
- Nugan Hand Ltd.

- The Banca Nazionale del Lavoro, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, and the arming of Saddam Hussein
- Charles Keating, Lincoln Savings (a subsidiary of American Continental Corporation)
- BCCI and ICIC
- Harken Energy Scandal, George W. Bush, James R. Bath and Jackson T. Stephens
- Hans Kopp, Shakarchi Trading AG
