When an American woman, Stella Bain, is found suffering from
severe shell shock in an exclusive garden in London, surgeon August Bridge and
his wife selflessly agree to take her in.
A gesture of goodwill turns into something more as Bridge
quickly develops a clinical interest in his houseguest. Stella had been working
as a nurse's aide near the front, but she can't remember anything prior to four
months earlier when she was found wounded on a French battlefield.
