Действие происходит в 1911 году, в Москве. В одном из московских театров происходят преступления, Эраст Петрович пытается раскрыть их и одновременно завоевать сердце любимой актрисы. Фандорин наконец-то влюбился - если раньше он лишь позволял женщинам любить себя, не "вспыхивая" в ответ, то теперь все изменилось, как при трагических событиях 35-летней давности. Ради любимой Эраст Петрович сделал невозможное — сочинил пьесу из японской жизни, написав ее белым стихом. Эта пьеса приводится Борисом Акуниным в конце, как приложение к роману. Заканчивается роман женитьбой (точнее, гражданским браком) Фандорина на Элизе Луантэн.
