Lee Kim Cheng leaves behind his shattered business in Malaysia and travels to London in search of a qualification he believes will open new doors for him. Three months later we find him living in a run-down bedsitter, wrapped against the cold and struggling to make ends meet. Just a few streets away, Isabel Raines is on her way to a first date with the man who will become her husband. Two people, seemingly strangers, going about their lives in the city where people can disappear; two people, both haunted by memories of a former love. Moving between the wet and windswept streets of London and the intense, tropical sunlight of Malaysia, The Journey's End tells the bittersweet story of a brief but tender affair that was never allowed to run its natural course.
