In Ankh-Morpork, con artist Moist von Lipwig faces a grim choice: execution or the dubious honor of becoming the city's Postmaster General. Already having survived one hanging, he reluctantly takes the job, hoping it’ll keep him alive a little longer.
The Post Office is in shambles, buried under a mountain of undelivered letters, managed by eccentric staff, and shadowed by a sinister secret society. Moist must revive this institution to stay alive, with the help of the sharp-tongued Adora Belle Dearheart—who is as striking as she is fierce.
But with new technology and a ruthless chairman intent on sabotage, Moist’s mission to restore the mail service is more dangerous than it seems.
Anything by Terry Pratchett. Discworld is technically a series, but each book stands on its own. Maybe start with Going Postal.

Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Fairies is also good. Again, technically first in a series, but stands alone well.
Venture into the imaginative world of "Going Postal", the thirty-third entry in the beloved Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. This engaging tale is vividly brought to life by the voices of Richard Coyle, Bill Nighy, and Peter Serafinowicz. Spanning 13 hours and 36 minutes, the story follows the notorious swindler Moist von Lipwig who is given a second chance to reform as the Postmaster of Ankh-Morpork, a role filled with chaos, comedy, and corruption.
