The man who uttered Daisy's name insists the woman knew her. They were friends, cousins perhaps. He saw them interact at a luncheon many years ago. Before Daisy's tragic death. Who is Daisy Summers? A girl from a woman's past, long forgotten? Or a haunting memory that she cannot escape? "A wholly entrancing narrative.... Kohler has a fine ear for truth and untruth and the musical possibilities of their interplay." -J.M. Coetzee, Nobel Prize-winning author "Once in a while a novel appears which stands out.... The Perfect Place is such a book... convincing as case history, and an engrossing entertainment." - The Sunday Times
