The story takes place in Paris, where a young doctor, Marie Laurent, takes a job at Professor Kern's clinic. She discovers that Kern is conducting experiments on organ reanimation and that he has kept the head of his teacher, Professor Dowell, alive. Marie begins to communicate with Dowell's head and learns about his fate and how Kern is using his scientific discoveries for selfish purposes.
