Sinopsis

How do you find a place to belong when there&rsquo,s nowhere else to go?Living alone, eighty-year-old Jim Philips potters in his garden feeding his magpies. He doesn&rsquo,t think much of his nosy neighbours or telemarketers. All he wants to do is live in peace.Cleaning out a box belonging to his late wife, he finds something which triggers the memories of a childhood he&rsquo,s hidden, not just from his overprotective middle-aged daughter, Helen, but from himself.á When Jim has a stroke and begins speaking another language, Helen is shocked to find out her father is not who she thinks he is.Jim&rsquo,s suppressed memories surface in the most unimaginable way when he finally confronts what happened when, as a ten-year-old, he was forced at gunpoint to leave his family and trek barefoot through the mountains to escape the Greek Civil War in 1948.áA Perfect Stone is a sweeping tale of survival, loss and love.ááá
