It’s 1921, and 35-year-old Lena Clark has a problem. There’s money missing from her post office, but she’s about to point the finger of a former mail carrier, Fred Miltimore. Fred was more than just a coworker, though, and Lena is more than meets the eye. This case has murder, fortune telling, crystal balls, snakes, lies, snarky reporters, past lives (allegedly), even more lies, and a wayward preacher’s daughter.
