Dexter Morgan appears to be the perfect gentleman. He leads a normal, quiet life working as a forensic officer for the Miami Police. He has a nice, shy girlfriend and is liked by her young children.
But Dexter has a secret hobby. He's an accomplished serial killer. So far he's killed dozens of people and has never been caught, because he knows exactly how to dispose of the evidence. And there are those who would rather he wasn't caught at all, because Dexter is a serial killer with a difference.
He only kills the city's bad guys. Then Dexter's well-organised life is thrown into chaos. Another serial killer is invading his territory - and he wants Dexter to come out and play....

The writing style is very simplistic, a bit too much so, but I guess Dexter is just a simple soul. I found parts of it amusing but I agree that the ending wasn't quite satisfactory, too abrupt. Overall, a neat idea and an enjoyable read.

Added to the J-author bookring.

Saw some of the TV series. Will peruse and then decide

This is now in NZ, not in Richmond. (JE as PM unavailable.)

A bit darker than the TV Dexter. The ending feels incomplete. Good read though.
