The story centers around an elegant elderly lady (Plowright) who, after being recently widowed, moves from Scotland to London to be near to her 26 year old grandson, Desmond. Desmond fails to return any of her several phone calls, or visit her at the resident hotel she is staying (The Claremont), fate brings her together with a young writer, Ludovic Meyer, after she has an accident outside his basement flat.
