Dexter Is Dead: The GRIPPING thriller that’s inspired the new Showtime series DEXTER: ORIGINAL SIN (Book Eight)

As seen on TV - DEXTER: NEW BLOOD - major new drama

''The freshest, most terrifying creations you are ever likely to meet (and live to tell about)'' Robert Crais

Dexter Morgan has burned the candle at both ends for many years. Blood spatter analyst . . . husband . . . father . . . serial killer. And now, for the first time, his world has truly collapsed. Dexter is arrested on charges of murder. He has lost everything - including his wife, his kids, and the loyalty of his sister.

Now completely alone, Dexter faces a murder charge (for a crime . . . ironically . . . he did not actually commit). His only chance for freedom lies with his brother, Brian, who has a dark plan to prove Dexter''s innocence. But the stakes are deadly, and the epic showdown that lies in Dexter''s path may lead, once and for all, to his demise.

Jeff Lindsay''s trademark devilish wit and cutting satire have never been sharper. Dexter Is Dead marks the end of a beloved series, but is also Dexter''s most satisfying and suspenseful outing yet.
