Why am I passionate about this?
I’m passionate about any suspense or thriller book. Even better, if I can’t figure out the ending, I love it when I believe I have the killer or bad guy figured out, and I’m wrong. I have read all of the books I recommended. They were page-turners and kept me on the edge of my seat. I loved reading every single one.

Why did Mary love this book?
I loved the Dexter television series. I was delighted when I found the author’s books. I devoured the series. And when I finished the last one, I just wanted to start over again.

I never knew what Dexter was going to do next.
He is charming and likable. If I’d met him face to face, I would never think he was a serial killer. He did have rules, though; he only picked bad people who slipped through the fingers of the judicial system. I highly recommend this book.
