Katie Connors, on the editorial staff of ''Sight'' magazine, journeys to San Marcos, a remote Mexico fishing village, seeking novelist and adventurer Mike Latimer, who has abandoned writing "at the peak of his fame" and dropped from sight. She soon learns that he is indeed there, indulging in drinking, fishing, hunting, and flying his Piper J-3 Cub. Katie contrives to meet him, pretending not to know his identity, but Latimer easily sees through her clumsy denials and is immediately attracted to her. Over the next several days they enjoy each other's company, but Katie may be falling in love with him and conceals the real reason she is there. After Latimer explains that his wife was the muse#in literature behind his literary success, and that he quit writing because she left him to be with his best friend, Katie decides to go back to New York City. Latimer offers to fly her to Mexico City and asks Katie to write down her address to keep in touch. During the flight the magnetism notebook in Katie's purse affects the plane's magnetic compass and they find themselves lost over jungle. The plane runs out of fuel and Latimer crash-lands in a small clearing. Knocked unconscious, he wakes up to find himself in a bed in the main house of a hacienda.
