A car accident leaves Michael Hillyard (Collins) comatose and tragically disfigures Nancy McCallister (Quinlan).

Believing Nancy was killed in the accident, Michael throws himself into his career. A year later, he is assigned to a project in San Francisco, where Nancy has assumed a new identity to go with her new face. When their paths cross, Michael finds himself mysteriously drawn to this beautiful but bitter stranger.
