About This Book
Meet Dexter, a polite wolf in sheep's clothing . . . a monster who cringes at
the site of blood . . . a serial killer whose one golden rule makes him
immensely likable: he only kills bad people.
Dexter Morgan isn't exactly the kind of man you'd bring home to Mom. Though he's
playful and has a wonderfully ironic sense of humor, Dexter's one character flaw
(his proclivity for murder) can be off-putting. But at heart Dexter is the
perfect gentleman, supportive of his sister, Deb, a Miami cop, and interested
only in doing away with people who really deserve his special visit. Dex is
quite good-looking but totally indifferent to (and, frankly, a bit puzzled by)
the attentions paid to him by women. Despite the fact that he can't stand the
sight of blood, he works as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police
department, a job that allows him to keep tabs on the latest crimes and keep an
eye open for his next quarry.
Dexter's well-organized life is suddenly disrupted when a second, much more
visible serial killer appears in Miami. Dex is intrigued, even delighted, by the
fact that the other killer appears to have a style reminiscent of his own. Yet
he can't help but feel that the mysterious new arrival is not merely invading
his turf, but reaching out to him as well. This new killer seems to be doing
more than copying Dexter?he seems to be saying, "Come out and play." Dexter's
secret life makes for a lonely existence . . . even a lovable monster can be
intrigued by the prospect of finding a friend.
Introducing one of the most witty and original narrators in years, Jeff
Lindsay's Darkly Dreaming Dexter is a fresh, surprising, and brilliantly
executed novel that is sure to receive wide acclaim.
