Darkly Dreaming Dexter

I've enjoyed this unusual story Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay. Lindsay's books have been turned into a popular TV series. Dexter is a psychopathic serial killer who is also a police forensic expert. The story is told in the first person so the reader has an insight into how he thinks. He confesses to having no "normal" human feelings. In this book he is fascinated by the work of a serial killer being investigated by the police. He has some gruesome encounters with the killer and his victims. The story finishes with a startling finale which then gives room for the series to continue. 4/5
