The book mostly switches between the perspectives of Hen, her new neighbour Matthew, and Matthew's wife, Mira. And I was so deeply sucked into this one that I totally didn't see it coming. Instead, the book is at times a game of cat and mouse, at other times a psychological portrait of justice and abuse.
There's no whodunnit because we know almost immediately who did it. Speaking of thrills, Before She Knew Him is a thriller, not a mystery, if that distinction is important to you. Well, that bodes well for me because I found this quite thrilling!
Some seasoned Swanson readers are saying Before She Knew Him wasn’t as compelling as his other books. "They had a secret, the two of them, and there was no better way to start a friendship than with a secret."
