Dexter in the Dark by Jeff Lindsay
Dexter Morgan, Miami PD blood-spatter analyst, is accustomed to seeing evil deeds - he occasionally enjoys committing them himself. Guided by his Dark Passenger - the voice that helps stalk his prey - he lives outwardly normal life according to one simple rule: he kills only very bad people.
But everything changes when Dexter attends a gruesome double homicide. Dex realizes he's dealing with someone a lot more sinister than he is, and it sends the Dark Passenger into hiding. And if the Dark Passenger is scared, it has to be serious...
This book is undoubtedly the most unpredictable so far. It has nearly no similarities to the TV series at this point.
Dexter gradually becomes a father figure/mentor for Astor and Cody - his girlfriend Rita's two children. Meanwhile, he has to help Rita organize their wedding. Not to mention,the Dark Passenger slowly goes into hiding following a gruesome crime scene, resulting in Dexter losing his predatory instincts and actually feeling fear and anxiety. He becomes distressed daily and constantly misses and wishes for the return of his lifelong buddy- the accurate and reliable Dark Passenger...
The book is rather erratic because a) In relation to already having watched "Dexter" the TV series, it is basically a completely different story and b) Once "The Watcher" starts stalking Dexter, it is somewhat confusing and it is hard to determine who "The Watcher" is.
My Cat Catch Book Rating Scale above- It was absolutely amazing(5/5 cats)
I thoroughly was entertained by this book. Lindsay has drawn outside the box of reality for this book and as a result I adore the wild tale, which Dexter undergoes throughout this book.
Dexter frantically tries to gather information about the Dark Passenger once it eludes him. I considerably appreciated the zooming in on the Dark Passenger. The routes of the Dark Passenger are frightfully interesting. The zooming in on the Dark Passenger's origins is where Lindsay has slightly drawn outside the box of reality, but all for the better I assure you!
I preferred this to the other books, unquestionably because the plot has almost no similarities to the TV series. 'Darkly Dreaming Dexter' is a close second as it clearly portrays Dexter's twisted, insightful and logical mind.
