Miami's best-dressed serial killer is back and on the prowl, at least he would be if he could shake off his permanent shadow. Ever since their paths first crossed, Sergeant Doakes hasn't let Dexter Morgan out of his sight. Dexter may well be the Miami PD's blood-spatter analyst, but Sgt. Doakes has a pretty good idea of how Dex likes to spend his free time and he's determined to catch him in the act. Dex hasn't killed in months and is getting twitchy.

I liked this one better than the first. Dexter is growing on me. I'm certain I'll end up watching the show. The biggest thing that bugs me is his sister. She is always bitching, and every other word is GD. Ms. Potty Mouth needs a valium. I'm interested to see where his connection with his girl...
Second day of my Dexter Morgan marathon and Book Two is done. Have I mentioned how much I love Audible's x3 narration speed? Well, it really isn't x3, as an eight hour book still took four hours to listen to, but it's still a quick way to barrel through a series of short books. This is the point whe...
Secondo volume della saga che vede per protagonista Dexter Morgan, ematologo della polizia di Miami, ma soprattutto, serial killer. Decisamente più macabro del primo libro, l'atmosfera viene efficacemente mitigata dall'ironia e il distacco del protagonista-narratore, che di fatto, pur essendo un ass...
