Miss Betty Applewhite, Summerfield's unofficial matchmaker, is determined to get another young couple together. She uses the ploy of having one of her cats stuck in a tree to summon both the fire department and police department, hoping to unite a female firefighter and a young police officer. Realizing that this can't go on forever, she devises a plan to have them assist her in the TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) program for feral cats. They reluctantly agree, but a mystery soon develops as cats begin disappearing around the town. The mystery deepens as two young boys disappear while fishing. Will the cats be found? Will the missing boys be rescued? Will Miss Betty's plan come to fruition? The answers are revealed as the plot develops in "Springtime in Summerfield," which features both new characters and some familiar faces from the Summerfield series.
