William Woolf works as a letter detective in the Dead Letters Depot of East London; daily he tries to solve the mysteries of hundreds of undelivered letters and parcels to help them complete their journeys. When he starts to find letters written by a woman named Winter to her Great Love, (whom she has never met), he becomes convinced that she is writing to him.

Torn between his love and commitment to his wife and his romantic idealism, William must of follow the clues in Winter's letters to solve his most important mystery yet: the human heart.
