Killer twists in Daisy White's "Before I Left"

This is a whodunnit and Daisy White strews a half dozen red herrings across our path before revealing the murderer. There are plenty of murders and hints at witchcraft and Satanism. The book is set in Brighton with a number of recognisable locations which make it more vivid.

Secondly, it is a thriller and there are parts of the narrative which will have the reader on the edge of the seat. There are a number of twists in the tale and surprises.

I suggest you keep the title in mind while reading the story because a great deal of the back story is revealed during the narrative.


It is set in the 1960s and there are pieces of period detail which are spot on. Homosexuality was a criminal offence at the time this story is set and the prejudice against gay men, in particular, has a role in the unfolding story.

Read this book.
