Double Dexter

Double Dexter by Jeff Lindsay. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781409113492.

A witness. Such a simple concept, and yet for Dexter Morgan - a perfectly well-disguised serial killer - the possibility of a witness is terrifying. As an upstanding blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Police, Dexter has always managed to keep the darker side of his life out of the spotlight. An expert at finding truly bad people - murderers whove long escaped justice - and giving them his own special attention. But now someone has seen him in the act. Making matters worse, a brutal cop killer is targeting Miami police, leaving bodies beyond recognition, completely bloodless. As the police become more fearful of a psychotic killer in their midst, Dexter realises that his witness is not just circling him, but determined to expose him. Dexter is being followed, manipulated and mimicked, leading him to appreciate that no one likes to have a double - especially when his doubles goal is to kill him. Like the five previously bestselling novels in the Dexter series, in Double Dexter Jeff Lindsay demonstrates the witty, macabre originality that has propelled him to international success.
