London art dealer Ben Hoadey has a cardiac crisis while flying his helicopter, just able to land on Geoffrey Arland's Cornish coast estate. Ben takes Dr. Gerome's advice to abort workaholism and stays indefinitely in the sleepy resort town. He's romantically interested in wheelchair-bound Geoffrey's wife June, who nurses both men and the doctor's other patients. Ben's jealous ex Rebecca tries to spoil everything with a dirty deal.
