As 1997 dawns, Ted, now retired and wheelchair-bound, reflects on the past 45 years in Empire Close. He fondly remembers a time when a strong British identity was the hallmark of the neighbourhood, a trait he held dear. However, he's witnessed a gradual transformation that leaves him feeling isolated and nostalgic.
With the death of the last original neighbour, Ted grapples with the reality that he may be the last 'true' Brit left. His internal struggle is profound, as he wrestles with his beliefs and identity, yet never fully confronting their deeper implications.
An unexpected turn of events dramatically upsets Ted's world, challenging him to confront both his past and his future. This journey of self-discovery brings Ted to a pivotal crossroads, where he must reconcile his past actions with their unforeseen impact on his life.
The story navigates the complexities of identity, community, and change, leaving readers to ponder André Malraux's notion: 'When man faces destiny, destiny ends and man comes into his own.' As the narrative unfolds, Ted's journey towards understanding his destiny and himself takes intriguing turns, leading to a thought-provoking conclusion.
