Synopses & Reviews
In his work as a Miami crime scene investigator, Dexter Morgan is accustomed to seeing evil deeds...particularly because, on occasion, he commits them himself. But Dexter's happy existence is turned upside down when he is called to an unusually disturbing crime scene at the university campus. Dexter's Dark Passenger — mastermind of his homicidal prowess — immediately senses something chillingly recognizable and goes into hiding. Dexter is alone for the first time in his life, and he realizes he's being hunted by a truly sinister adversary. Meanwhile, he's planning a wedding and trying to learn how to be a stepfather to his fiancé's two kids — who might just have dark tendencies themselves.
Macabre, ironic, and wonderfully entertaining, Dexter In the Dark goes deeper into the psyche of one of the freshest protagonists in recent fiction.

"Readers who have not yet met Dexter can enjoy reading the latest without starting at the beginning....Dexter is an evolving character, as well as a fascinating and original one." Denver Post
Review
"[A] fantastic series....Lindsay gives Dexter a great voice and provides the reader with several laugh-out-loud scenes. It's easy to cheer for this nicest of serial killers, and the pages will turn quickly....Highly recommended." Library Journal
