Where did Miss Finch go?

The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch by Neil Gaiman & Michael Zulli  55 pp.

The title of this slim graphic novel is almost as long as the book. However, there is a lot packed into it's few pages. A group of friends with the addition of the not-particularly pleasant and argumentative Miss Finch spend an evening attending a bizarre and somewhat creepy circus in an old building. Miss Finch only agrees to join them after being told there are no animal acts. The audience is directed from room to room to observe a variety of circus "acts" by a ringmaster dressed as Alice Cooper from his "Welcome to My Nightmare" days. Miss Finch is then drawn away to be an audience participant in the show. In the end, she is gone...but where did she go?
