Taming the Wish by Sava Buncic

Petar, a physician and scientist living an ordinary life, unexpectedly and through no fault of his own, faces the danger that his whole existence and that of his loved ones will be erased by the powerful machinery of the state's secret service. Will he turn to bare survival, just surrender to the terrible threats from that monster and do everything it demands from him? Even though that could lead to destruction of the fundamental ethical, moral and humanistic values that uphold humanity, and make it what it is, or should be? Or will he try to resist, however hopeless that seems and regardless of the possible cost, and fight the monster to preserve the normality of people and the society they live in? While grappling with those existential dilemmas, his only secure foothold is the love he shares with those he is closest to.
