House on the Cliff

Ellen Clayton, the lovely young heiress of the Clayton estate, has been confined to a wheelchair since the evening her father, a passenger in the car she was driving, was killed. She resides at the Clayton summer home with her cooly beautiful stepmother Karen and their austere housekeeper Jenny.

Into their midst arrives Nurse Pepper, cheerful, curious, and with a desire to put things in order. Also new to the scene is a substitute doctor, Corey Phillips, who sees no reason why Ellen shouldn't walk again - soon.
