America's most-read, most-watched, and most- beloved serial killer--Dexter Morgan--is back. After selling more than one million copies and inspiring the wildly popular #1 Showtime series and top-rated crime drama on pay-cable television, New York Times bestselling author Jeff Lindsay returns with his most hilarious, macabre, and purely entertaining novel yet. Dexter Morgan has always lived a happy homicidal life. He keeps his dark urges in check by adhering to one stead-fast rule . . . he only kills very bad people. But now Dexter is experiencing some major life changes--don't we all?--and they're mostly wrapped up in the eight-pound curiosity that is his newborn daughter.

Norm's overbearing, often outrageous efforts to reestablish ties with his sons infuriate Zack, and yet, despite twenty years of bad blood, he finds something compelling in his father's maniacal determination to transform his own life. Inspired by Norm, Zack boldly attempts to make some changes of his own, ...
