 Who Knew Stamp Collecting Could Be So Dangerous?
January 29 & 20, 2022
Stamp collecting is far more risky than you think. After their mother’s death, Jackie and Mary, two estranged half-sisters, discover a book of rare stamps that may include the crown jewel for collectors. One sister tries to collect on the windfall, while the other resists for sentimental reasons. In this gripping tale, a seemingly simple sale becomes dangerous when three seedy, high-stakes collectors enter the sisters’ world, willing to do anything to claim the rare find as their own. An “ingenious” fast-paced thriller, Mauritius is a gripping blend of sharp comedy and heart-pounding drama that simmers with constant surprise.
