    A tre anni Dexter Morgan ha vissuto quello che nessuno, adulto o bambino, potrebbe tollerare: l'omicidio della madre, morta davanti ai suoi occhi. Traumatizzato, è diventato un individuo incapace di provare sentimenti di empatia e ossessionato dal bisogno di uccidere. Il padre adottivo ha intuito le inclinazioni del bambino e lo ha educato a controllare l'impulso omicida, incanalandolo verso chi "merita" di essere punito. Così, da grande, Dexter ha una doppia vita: di giorno è un giovane brillante ematologo e consulente della polizia di Miami, specializzato nell'analizzare le scene del crimine. Di notte si trasforma nell'incarnazione dell'incubo americano: un serial killer micidiale e infallibile, che colpisce i malviventi sfuggiti alla giustizia... Il primo libro della fortunata saga di Dexter, che ha ispirato la famosa serie televisiva.

    Dexter Morgan: forensic analyst, serial killer and ... family man? The killer character that inspired the hit TV series. Miami's best-dressed serial killer is back and on the prowl, at least he would be if he could shake off his permanent shadow. Ever since their paths first crossed, Sergeant Doakes hasn't let Dexter Morgan out of his sight. Dexter may well be the Miami PD's blood-spatter analyst, but Sgt. Doakes has a pretty good idea of how Dex likes to spend his free time and he's determined to catch him in the act. Dex hasn't killed in months and is getting twitchy. To throw Doakes off his scent, he's spending more time with Rita, his girlfriend. But no matter how many cosy nights they spend in front of the TV, Doakes is still watching. Then a body turns up, horribly mutilated and barely alive. To trap the torturer, Doakes and Dexter will have to work together, if they can trust each other. It's a devil's pact and one of them will have to be the bait...

    Dexter Morgan, ematologo e consulente della scientifica di Miami, ma soprattutto feroce killer giustiziere di ogni sorta di malviventi impuniti, è abituato ad avere a che fare con il sangue e i delitti più raccapriccianti.

Come se ciò non bastasse, Dexter si trova a fronteggiare un diabolico antagonista, Alexander "Zander" Macauley, ed entra così nel mirino della setta dedita al culto di Moloch, una divinità perversa che pretende sacrifici umani...

    Hollywood gets more than it bargained for when television's hottest star arrives at the Miami Police Department and develops an intense, professional interest in a camera-shy blood spatter analyst named Dexter Morgan. Mega-star Robert Chase is famous for losing himself in his characters. When he and a group of actors descend on the Miami Police Department for 'research', Chase becomes fixated on Dexter Morgan, the blood spatter analyst with a sweet tooth for doughnuts and a seemingly average life. To perfect his role, Chase is obsessed with shadowing Dexter's every move and learning what really makes him tick. There is just one tiny problem . . . Dexter's favorite hobby involves hunting down the worst killers to escape legal justice, and introducing them to his special brand of playtime. It's a secret best kept out of the spotlight and away from the prying eyes of bloated Hollywood egos if Dexter wants to stay out of the electric chair. The last thing he needs is bright lights and the paparazzi . . . but even Dexter isn't immune to the call of fame. Jeff Lindsay's razor sharp, devilish wit, and immaculate pacing prove that he is in a class of his own, and this new novel is his most masterful creation yet.
