Welder Bjorn Bjornson, after stumbling across a winning lottery ticket, has been plunged into a vast conspiracy where his life is in more danger than a donut in Devon's house. (My friend Devon loves donuts. So a donut wouldn't last long if--you know what, skip it.) Bjorn and the agents of STOP must fend off an attack from an army of Postal Carriers. If they can survive that, there'll be even more danger...down the road.
