The first Dexter book was good, but this one is GREAT!! A truly sick serial killer is out for vengeance and our sweet, sociopathic Dexter is enlisted by his sister to help track him down. Dexter's own "playtime" is very reluctantly put on hold when Doakes, his nemesis, decides to shadow his every move. This forces Dexter into playing house with Rita and the kids in an attempt to fool Doakes into thinking he's "normal". Meanwhile, people are losing body parts and a boot-wearing child-killer may slip through Dexter's fingers. Jeff Lindsay's Dexter books are hilarious, sick, and thrilling - a satisfying combination. This one ends with plenty of fodder for several more. Yea for us!!
