Jeff Lindsay is the author of Darkly Dreaming Dexter. He lives in South Florida with his wife and three daughters.
From acclaimed author Jeff Lindsay, one of the most exciting voices to explode onto the literary scene in years, comes the tale of a serial killer like no other. Darkly Dreaming Dexter is macabre yet wickedly funny, a wildly original novel that entertains from beginning to end.
"It's been years since there's been a thriller debut as original as this one by Lindsay … fresh as dawn."—Publishers Weekly
The plot has some nice twists, and the Miami setting contributes its own eccentric flavor. But the real appeal of this macabre tour-de-force is Dexter's sardonic voice, so snappy and smart, and yet so full of self-loathing that we hate ourselves for laughing.
