Country doctor Johanna's split from fiancé Laurenz is still fresh, so she hesitates to embark on a new relationship with charming horse ranch owner Daniel. Their courtship is gradual and halting. On a mountain hike in the local nature preserve one day, they're surprised by a rock slide. Daniel is injured slightly, Johanna escapes rattled but unscathed. Johanna suspects an illegal blast caused the avalanche and investigates. Then Daniel's former colleague Ines shows up, claiming she's here for rest and relaxation - but when she slips and falls off a ledge on a photo safari in the nature park, Johanna discovers clues she may have something to do with the mysterious blast. Meanwhile, tragedy strikes at the Bergmeier farm when Grete Bergmeier slips and falls to her death off a rotten ladder. Devastated, her husband Leo blames his son-in-law Gerhard for not fixing the ladder. Luckless Gerhard was due to take over the family farm soon, although he never really felt respected and accepted. Now his suffering father-in-law banishes him from the farm after a bitter argument. Can country doctor Johanna help mend the rift...?
