About this ebook

Dexter Morgan—blood-spatter analyst, husband, father, serial killer—knew that he couldn’t burn the candle at both ends forever, and now, his dark deeds have finally ensnared him. • The Killer Character That Inspired the Hit Showtime Series Dexter

He is in prison on multiple homicide charges, although, ironically, he did not commit any of the murders of which he is accused. He’s lost everything: his wife, kids, career, and the loyalty of his sister. Now his sole, small shot at redemption may come from his brother, Brian, a homicidal maniac who makes Dexter look like the angel in the family. By helping Brian through some serious trouble of his own making, Dexter sees a potential path to proving himself innocent.
 
But the stakes are truly deadly. And, with nothing left to hold him back, Dexter hurtles into an epic showdown ... which may be his last.

I am a HUGE fan of all things dexter. Tv, books, comics. The author must be getting older bc he has dexter talking about food way too much this time as if someone in a nursing home only has food to look forward to each sad day. Maybe that's the point, I don't know. I love the team up towards the end, all the rest of it was too predictable though and I think he forgot who Brian really was, dexter seems to have emotions but then his .even worse brother wants to take the lead? No, I don't buy it. Exciting tho

kids kidnapped again..... Dexter in jail no one even Deb on his side framed by Miami metro for the killings in 7 that he didn't do.... I'm almost done with this this book.... Brian bonds him out with his killer +not really killer+ big shot lawyer he is out there is almost no dark passenger just his ending .... he's facing the cartel and the police it's messed up now he's really alone and hotel to hotel it went by fast and I am already seeing the end .... and then after a huge fan of the series and show I want more Dexter. someway somehow if he's not killed killed let there be a new blood like book in the boonies . Brian really was setting up him for help but it beats his jail time now he's at his last hundred pages or so from me. let there be more this is a book that was a surprise in itself the end of 7 was messed up and Dexter deserves better but does he? he's a serial killer himself and it catches up in one way or another for all of us like in the sins of the father.

I liked the show better where he is left alive with no one. A living death...
