Dexter Is Dead - by Jeff Lindsay (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

"Fans will rush through . . . double-quick in order to savor every moment of Dexter's final hour."--Kirkus Reviews

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. 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.
