- One case gives a night-shift postal clerk a letter in his own handwriting, postmarked tomorrow.
Field notes
The cases are presented as numbered dossiers, with dates and locations attached to each premise rather than left as generic story hooks. Pending files have individual opening dates and playable-character details, including a society reporter snowbound with twelve guests and a postal clerk handling undeliverable mail. The homepage says new files arrive at the end of each month.
