INTERNATIONAL PREMIERE - On a desolate county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box sliding a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind. The note makes its way to the county post office desk of Jasper, a skilled "dead letter" investigator, responsible for tracking lost mail and returning it to its sender. Investigating further, Jasper meets Trent who has taken up residence at the same men’s hostel. When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it’s clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it.
