Miles Straume

Miles talks to the dead. Literally. A gift he never asked for. He uses it as a private detective. Paid to listen to corpses' last words.

He lands on the island with the freighter team. Skeptical. Sarcastic. He believes in nothing except money. Then he discovers that Pierre Chang, the scientist from the DHARMA videos, is his father.

Stuck in 1977, Miles sees his father up close. A man who seems cold. But who ends up evacuating his wife and baby Miles from the island to save them. Miles finally understands. His father didn't abandon him. He protected him.
