FOR TOMMIE AND GUS,
WHO HAVE CERTAINLY WAITED LONG ENOUGH
It's that moon again, slung so fat and low in the tropical night, calling out across a curdled sky and into the quivering ears of that dear old voice in the shadows, the Dark Passenger, nestled snug in the backseat of the Dodge K-car of Dexter's hypothetical soul.
May contain spoilers
Then I turned my boat around and followed the moon home to bed.

Life's tough for Dexter Morgan.  It's not easy being the world's only serial killer with a conscience, especially when you work for the Miami police.  To avoid suspicion, dexter's had to slip deep into his disguise: s[ending time with his girlfriend and her kids, slowly becomming the world's first serial killing couch potato.

Then a particularly nasty psychopath starts cutting a trail through Miami - a killer whose twisted techniques leave even Dexter speechless.  When his sister Deborah, a tough-as-nails cop, is drawn into the case, it becomes clear that Dexter will have to come out of hiding and hunt the monster down.  Unless, of course, the killer finds him first...

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
