When Cathy meets her new neighbor, her heart sinks. Mark is about her age but he is a permanent invalid and, what is worse, a very irritable and moody one. Yet, because she and Mark share a passion for Beamsters, the old country house that Cathy's father has inherited, the two young people spend more and more time together. A deep and sensitive relationship develops between them as they discover the history of the bee masters who used to live in the house. Gradually Cathy helps March achieve a measure of physical freedom by teaching him to ride her pony. And in time he forgets his own problems enough to help another handicapped teenager in need.
