Automne 1925. Jeanne Duluc, jeune journaliste socialiste et féministe, s'est fait embaucher au Central Gutenberg afin d'enquêter sur les difficiles conditions de travail des demoiselles du téléphone.

L'enquête est confiée à Paul Varenne, inspecteur dépendant à la cocaïne et à l'opium à la suite de ses blessures de guerre.
