NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The "dark comedy with a creative twist" (Miami Herald) that introduced America's favorite serial killer--the character that inspired the hit Showtime series Dexter and Dexter: Original Sin "A macabre tour-de-force."--The New York Times Book Review Meet Dexter Morgan, a polite wolf in sheep's clothing. He's handsome and charming, but something in his past has made him abide by a different set of rules. He's a serial killer whose one golden rule makes him immensely likeable: he only kills bad people.
And his job as a blood splatter expert for the Miami police department puts him in the perfect position to identify his victims. But when a series of brutal murders bearing a striking similarity to his own style start turning up, Dexter is caught between being flattered and being frightened-of himself or some other fiend.
