Black rock white city : a novel

Patrić, A. S. (author.).

Summary: "Jovan and Suzana have fled war-torn Sarajevo after losing everything they held dear: Their children, their careers, their home, even their connection to each other. Now landed in a suburb of Melbourne, where the only work they could find was as menial laborers, they're struggling to rebuild their lives. But, in the midst of a long, hot summer, things have become perversely more complicated. Jovan's janitorial work at a hospital is disrupted by a series of mysterious acts of vandalism, acts that grow more and more elaborate and depraved, and more and more threatening. And as Jovan cleans up after each one, he can't shake the ominous feeling that he and Suzana have been personally targeted..."--Provided by the publisher.
