From the creative force behind Touched by an Angel comes a wonderful combination of romance, comedy and drama that follows the lives of four postal workers who transform themselves into a team of detectives to track down the intended recipients of undeliverable mail.

The team includes charming Oliver O’Toole (Eric MabiusScandalUgly Betty), a genius postal detective and the group’s leader; new team member Shane McInerney (Kristin BoothThe Kennedys), a technophile who brings 21st century sensibility to the group; free-spirited “girl next door” Rita Haywith (Crystal LoweSmallville) who has a photographic memory; and lovable Norman Dorman (Geoff GustafsonPrimeval: New World), a master in conventional research methods.
