Inhaltsangabe

The year is 1936, and a local postman&;s corpse is found outside a Catholic church in the Shanghai International Settlement. The corpse is Zhongliang&;s father, and this day marks the end of his life as he knows it. In the wake of the Sino-Japanese War, he decides to follow in his father&;s footsteps and find out the truth about his death by becoming a postman himself. What Zhongliang thought would be a simple life of mail delivery turns out to be a two-faced game of spying and deceit that consumes him entirely, leaving him with a fate not so dissimilar than that of those before.
