A graduate of the Faculty of Journalism, Darya Ivanovna works in a popular weekly. Despite obvious success, she considers her current professional activity empty and useless; this reason pushes her towards investigative journalism. One day, an opportunity is presented to her. And although the girl has only a very general outlook on her career, she wants to make a career so much, and for her, working in a popular newspaper is an excellent springboard. In addition, Daria is engaged to Anton Nikitin, an investigating judge at the city prosecutor's office. Relying on him, Daria becomes the leader of the "court chronicle".
