A colleague has someone looking for a book. They can't remember the title or author of a book but read it in the past decade.

"An English gentleman in his 60s or 70s works at a government job.  Occasionally, he collapses in the street so that he can be taken to the hospital to be cared for (sounds like he's lonely).  At some point, he is sent to stay with his cousin.  When the cousin dies, they leave their house to the protagonist.  He apparently sells the house and goes to live in a hotel in Paris."

Any thoughts?
