We present a comprehensive study of Z CVn, an RR Lyrae star that shows\nlong-term cyclic variations of its pulsation period. A possible explanation\nsuggested from the shape of the O-C diagram is the light travel-time effect,\nwhich we thoroughly examine. We used original photometric and spectroscopic\nmeasurements and investigated the period evolution using available maximum\ntimes spanning more than one century. If the binary hypothesis is valid, Z CVn\norbits around a black hole with minimal mass of $56.5$ $\\mathfrak{M}_{\\odot}$\non a very wide ($P_{\\rm orbit}=78.3$ years) and eccentric orbit ($e=0.63$). We\ndiscuss the probability of a formation of a black hole-RR Lyrae pair and,\nalthough we found it possible, there is no observational evidence of the black\nhole in the direction to Z CVn. However, the main objection against the binary\nhypothesis is the comparison of the systemic radial velocity curve model and\nspectroscopic observations that clearly show that Z CVn cannot be bound in such\na binary. Therefore, the variations of pulsation period are likely intrinsic to\nthe star. This finding represents a discovery/confirmation of a new type of\ncyclic period changes in RR Lyrae stars. By the analysis of our photometric\ndata, we found that the Blazhko modulation with period of 22.931 d is strongly\ndominant in amplitude. The strength of the phase modulation varies and is\ncurrently almost undetectable. We also estimated photometric physical\nparameters of Z CVn and investigated their variations during the Blazhko cycle\nusing the Inverse Baade-Wesselink method.\n
