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.

Day three of my Dexter Morgan marathon, and Book Three is done. I might actually do this Seven Books in Seven Days Challenge. Yay me. *cue crickets and awkward glances*I think I'm in the minority when I say that I liked this one very much, but I know why most readers (or, if you prefer, fans of this...
From the way Dexter refers to the Dark Passenger in earlier books it's almost as if he's a seperate entity. This takes that idea and creates a back-story for his Dark Passenger. In this story there are bodies turning up, burnt and headless and when Dexter goes to the first crime scene he loses his...
I read the first Dexter book around the time that I started watching the TV show. I love the TV show. Michael C Hall is a phenomenal actor and Dexter is one of my favourite TV shows because of Hall. The books however are just 'good' and not a patch on the TV show. They aren't terrible however, as th...
