Dexter by Design
The most likeable serial killer in town is back . . .
DEXTER has gone stratospheric. Now reaching audiences of 20 million plus on US TV, it hit terrestrial TV in the UK in Feb 08 on ITV. The acclaimed show has won an array of awards and a third series is already commissioned. The glowing reviews for the TV pick up the same qualities that make the books so compelling - macabre, gripping and with a unique voice. Dexter is one of the most fascinating and darkly funny (anti)heroes around. 'Fascinating, entertaining, and brilliant. Let Jeff Lindsay introduce you to the serial killer next door - Dexter (and his Dark Passenger) are the freshest, most terrifying creations you are ever likely to meet.' Robert Crais 'An enjoyable reunion with the only psychopath you wouldn't mind having in your corner.' DAILY POST 'Dexter in the Dark is witty and thought-provoking, full of unexpected sidelights on the nature of murder. Highly recommended.' SPECTATOR
Being a blood spatter analyst who hates the sight of blood has always made Dexter's work for the Miami PD tough. But it means he's very neat when it comes to his out-of-hours hobby: murder. Of course, the fact Dexter only kills bad people helps too.
Now Dex is facing a disturbing situation. He's used to blood at work and blood when he's out with the dark passenger (the voice that guides him on his deadly outings). But he's not sure what to make of the man who says blood is art. Using bodies as his canvas, someone is out there expressing themselves in the most lethal and painful of ways.
If Dexter's to escape the scalpel and avoid becoming the latest exhibit, he needs somewhere to run...and he might just have found the perfect place. With his wedding looming, completing his nice-guy disguise, Dexter's honeymoon might just save his skin.
