Double Dexter - by Jeff Lindsay (Paperback)

About the Book

Like the previous five bestselling novels in the Dexter series, "Double Dexter" showcases the witty, macabre originality that has propelled Lindsay to international success.

Book Synopsis

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A deadly duel unfolds for "the first serial killer who unabashedly solicits our love" (Entertainment Weekly)--the character that inspired the latest Showtime hit series Dexter: Resurrection.

Dexter is displeased. Like any self-respecting, totally decent, soundly homicidal guy, Dexter Morgan takes great pride in his work and is careful to remain anonymous. So he is, naturally, upset to discover that someone has identified him and--worst of all--is now turning his own methods against him.

The situation soon becomes more complicated when a brutal cop-killer begins targeting Miami's police detectives--leaving behind bodies that are battered beyond recognition--and stoking the department's worst fears. As his colleagues grow more paranoid of the psychotic killer in their midst, Dexter's position is increasingly perilous. He is running out of time to track down this copycat and deliver his usual special justice, before his dark hobby is revealed to the world.

Look for all of Jeff Lindsay's deliciously twisted Dexter novels:
