Головоломка/Puzzled (2014)

In December 2013, Seraphina moved to Geneva, Switzerland, hoping to make it her home. Being a special place from energy and vibes point of view, Geneva inspired her to write a romantic mystery, taking selected themes from her previous two books. She started her third book, Головоломка (Puzzled), while temporary living in an attic flat on the Rue Francois Bellot, just couple of minutes walk from the Geneva Old Town.
Unlike the two previous books, Головоломка (Puzzled) was being written in Russian. The characters of the book appeared in front of Seraphina's eyes as if by magic, each having their own story to tell. Similar to her first book, 'My Trickster', she was drawn to write from the perspective of the two narrators – a woman and a man. The writing process was a spontaneous one, since she worked with her subconscious, not having a particular plan or goal. However, despite not having a plan, Seraphina clearly saw the beginning and the end of the book.
While writing Головоломка (Puzzled), Seraphina was releasing finished episodes of the book on the platform Wattpad, quickly gaining appreciative audience, and tweaking the book based on the Wattpad readers' feedback.
Seraphina finished Головоломка (Puzzled) in just three months - she started it in December 2011 and finished it in March 2014.
In 2015, Seraphina translated her book into English, and four years later, in 2019, she turned the story into a screenplay format. One screenplay was in Russian under the same title as the book, and the other in English under the name 'Puzzled'.
