After all, it isn`t the first time someone`s slipped away & left Finn & Sean O` Sullivan on their own. Finn knows that`s not what happened with Roza.

- their melancholy pasts, their terrifying presents, their uncertain futures
- the truth about what happened to Roza is slowly revealed. & it is stranger than you can possibly imagine
