Mauritius is famous for its dodo, but there is another near-extinct export that has its own fabulous story - the world's most sought after postage stamps. This is an adventure that begins at a fancy dress ball on a tropical Indian Ocean island, and unfolds through discoveries of the stamps in Mauritius, India and Europe.
