Mr Stevens, formerly the butler to the German sympathiser Lord Darlington, gets a letter from former colleague Miss Kenton.
Mr Stevens is butler to Lord Darlington, who in the years leading up to the Second World War had great sympathy with Germany and hoped to retain the peace between Britain and the Nazis. Overseeing the running of the great house, Stevens is joined by housekeeper Miss Kenton.
