As she warns young Niko about his impending doom, she inadvertently alters the timeline, leading to a life where her daughter never existed. Desperate to restore her original timeline, Vera navigates a series of twists and turns, including a mysterious murder, a love triangle, and the relentless pursuit of her missing child.🎙 Listener Debate: Does the butterfly effect overshadow actual time travel in "Mirage"?
