What If Grandma Was a Spy?
Our most fitting pick for grandparents
The Cold War Spy
Eliza thought her sweet, cookie-baking grandmother lived a quiet life. Then she finds a journal and a blackbird pendant that reveal Grandma was a Cold War spy in the 1950s. Eight weekly letters follow Eliza as she uncovers the double life, a story many grandparents love to receive.
More Gifts for Grandparents
1970s Nostalgia
Four letters full of the TV, music, fashion, and snacks of the 1970s. A fun reminder of the decade many grandparents remember best.
Closed Case Files
A seasoned private investigator walks the reader through his most gripping cases, one letter a month for a full year. Classic detective stories at a relaxed pace.

Why Grandparents Treasure Fiction Mail
Many grandparents remember when the mailbox held letters, not just bills. Fiction Mail brings that feeling back with a story written just for them.
Real Letters, Like They Remember
Each chapter is printed in a realistic handwriting font and mailed in a kraft envelope. It looks and feels like personal correspondence.
No Technology Needed
There are no apps or passwords to manage. If they can open the mail, they can enjoy every letter.
Something to Talk About
Each new letter gives you something to chat about on your next call or visit, which makes the gift a conversation starter for the whole family.
Easy to Read
A single chapter per letter makes for a comfortable read in one sitting, and the story picks up where it left off with each new envelope.
Send to Their Home or Community
Mail the letters to their house or a senior living address. You choose the date the first one goes out and add a personal note from the grandkids.
