Plot summary
Jason Forrest, an antiques dealer from America, is in Budapest when he meets Claire Hamilton, a ballerina who has come to try out for a well-known ballet academy. At the audition another dancer is rejected severely and Claire's nerve fails. She wanders into the company's disused Brukenthor Theatre, where she performs Odette's solo from Swan Lake. Marius Balakin, the director and choreographer, sees her and calls her Natalie. She tells Jason she left the audition and he urges her to go again. Together they visit a deserted estate that appears to have been the home of a ballerina long ago. After an evening out they kiss, and he agrees to come with her the next morning. In her hotel room she finds black roses and a card that greets Natalie back.
