Since dexter is compelled to kill, his law abiding father pushes him to choose his quarry in a way that will best benefit society. As dexter grows older, he works as a blood splatter expert in miami, giving him a close view of other murderers and their handiwork. Stylish and blackly comic, this drama is adapted from jeff lindsay's novel darkly dreaming dexter.
