His dedicated doctor Kate sets out to find the missing person. She finds him in a small south English town, where he lives with his son Jeffrey. With charm and openness, Kate manages to win David's trust and eventually his heart. However, when he learns that Kate is on his father's behalf, this puts the young love to the test.
