General Analysis

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Darkly Dreaming Dexter" by Jeff Lindsay presents Dexter Morgan, a blood spatter analyst with a dark secret: he's a serial killer. Dexter channels his homicidal urges by targeting other murderers, adhering to a strict code instilled by his foster father.

The story follows Dexter as he navigates his double life, balancing his work with the Miami Metro Police Department and his carefully planned killings. The narrative explores themes of identity, morality, and the duality of human nature, questioning whether someone with dark urges can truly fit into society. As a copycat killer emerges, Dexter's carefully constructed world begins to crack, drawing him into a dangerous game of cat and mouse, and it all started with a dream.
