This is a simple comic which tells a complex story through art. A man falls in love with a sex worker who works at one of the many brothels/bars in town. She falls in love with him but then she goes missing.

The man decides to find out where she has been sent to and rescue her, and he does this by kidnapping the daughter of the brothel owner who is a hungarian mobster.

At any stage this could go terribly wrong but this man is in love and he wants his lover back in his arms.

I have to say my heart was in my mouth when I read this because I was convinced it was going to have one of those really complex and dreadful endings. The way the story is told is just so simplistic but it reveals the complexities of poverty that can lead women into sex work.

The story is also a commentary about trafficking and the lack of choice so many people have in our world today, not just women but also men. The underlying story is about freedom and the lack of freedom, but it is also a story about the unpredictability of love and courage.

It is also a story of hope.
