Ivana has gone missing... With her disappearance there begins a fantastical adventure for Professor Zoran ¿ivkovi¿, author and teacher of creative writing. Assisted by Senior Inspector Sanja Mrvaljevi¿ of the Belgrade police, military counterintelligence, the National Security Agency and ultimately Interpol, the search for Ivana grows into a comic nightmare of unforeseen proportions. For why and how do a series of mysterious videos, in which Ivana plays the starring role, reach Professor ¿ivkovi¿'s inbox, and why are their settings at once strangely familiar and unfamiliar? How will he escape the web of suspicion which weaves implacably about him, and will he and Ivana ever be reunited? Once again, this time in the ultimate sense, ¿ivkovi¿ explores the trickeries and mysteries of the creative process, in a book that is gripping, hilarious, touching and more revealing than any he has yet written.
