On the eve of the main premiere of the “Russian season” in Paris, a terrible thing happens - a dancer is killed. Someone shot a young man, mistaking him for Vaslav Nijinsky. But who could stop a talented ballet dancer? Diaghilev turns to Gabriel Lenoir, an agent of the Parisian police prefecture, to investigate this case in secret from the public. However, someone really wants the premiere to fail, and Nijinsky to suffer... “A magnificent detective plot that can surprise even the discerning reader, and an intense story about the era and the people in it.” – editor Ekaterina Irmesh
