While in prison awaiting trial for murder, Rozalia (Rose) Holyba had a recurring nightmare. She would dream that she was walking home along the banks of the Tisza River, searching for a place to build a new house. Suddenly, the soil would go soft under her feet.

She was cloaked in a thick hide of summer sweat, and all the impossible bits of filth she had failed to clean from the room had floated to her, freckling her with speckles of dirt and dust.
