One night, under the light of a full moon, Idunno and his Goop friend Bookatashi head off to a mysterious house that is rumored to be haunted. After Idunno opens the door, he gets swept away to the Basilica Cistern in Turkey, a massive subterranean complex with rows and rows of columns and lots of water. There, he meets a friendly carp named Sazan, who warns him that he should avoid the stone Medusas that hold up two of the columns of the Basilica. This makes Idunno nervous, and when he gets nervous, he goes into a trance and can\\u2019t seem to think or say anything except \\u201cI dunno.\\u201d This won\\u2019t be helpful if he needs to find a way home!

Besides the Medusas, Idunno must also avoid fishermen looking for their next meal. With so many things happening around him, how will he ever calm down enough to think straight? Can he resist the urge to say \\u201cI dunno\\u201d and set his sights on doing what needs to be done instead?
