The novel follows two main characters, Aoyagi Seiichi and Segawa Yui who work for the same pharmaceutical company and face the threat of being laid off after the company goes through a merger. The two of them are offered a last chance to redeem themselves: Aoyagi and Segawa would be temporarily transferred to a ballet troupe their company has been sponsoring in the past years. If they can make their performance of Swan Lake at the end of the year into a success, they may escape being a victim of downsizing.
Through this transfer, the two of them are drawn into the world of dancing, previously unknown to them. Their fates intertwine not only with the small ballet troupe who is struggling to keep afloat, but internationally renowned dancer Takano Haruka and a popular Japanese idol group as well.
Creator/TakarazukaRevue adapted this book into a musical, ''[[Theatre/CompanyTakarazukaRevue Company (Takarazuka Revue)]]'' in 2018.
