Dein Freund, dein Helfer - dein MörderDexter Morgan arbeitet als Spezialist für Blutanalysen bei der Polizei von Miami - und mordet gerne. Aber seine Morde dienen einem höheren Zweck: Jedes Mal, wenn er zuschlägt, erwischt es einen ganz gewöhnlichen, brutalen Killer. Einer weniger! Doch als plötzlich ein zweiter Serienkiller auftaucht, der es ebenfalls nur auf die schlimmsten Täter abgesehen hat, gerät Dexters wohlgeordnetes Leben völlig aus den Fugen. Offensichtlich legt es der Andere darauf an, ihn herauszufordern ...

Klappentext:
As seen on TV - DEXTER: NEW BLOOD - major new drama'A macabre tour-de-force' NEW YORK TIMESDexter Morgan isn't exactly the kind of man you'd bring home to your mum. At heart, he's the perfect gentleman: he has a shy girlfriend, and seems to lead a quiet, normal life bordering on the mundane. Despite the fact that he can't stand the sight of blood, he works as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police. But Dexter also has a secret hobby: he is an accomplished serial killer. So far, he's killed 36 people and has never been caught because he knows exactly how to hide the evidence. And while that may lead some people to assume he's not such a nice guy, he tempers his insatiable hunger for brutality by only killing the bad guys.However, Dexter's well-organised life is suddenly disrupted when a second, much more visible serial killer appears in Miami. Intrigued that the other killer favours a style similar to his own, Dexter soon realises that the mysterious new arrival is not simply invading his turf but offering him a direct invitation to 'come out and play'...
