Críticas: Lindsay applies the thumbscrew with witty relish and draws the reader in from the outset... Articulate and ghoulish, Dexter is one of a kind and his adventures never fail to entertain... Annoyingly clever. (Maxim Jakubowski THE GUARDIAN)

'A psychopath with a sense of irony and even a vestigal conscience is a novelty and so is this tasteless but witty, entertaining romp.' (Suzanna Yager SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)

'Stylish, polished and very readable. Lindsay rattles off his story and does the job as professionally as Dexter does his.' (Andrea Henry DAILY MIRROR)

'A sleek black comedy' (Philip Oakes LITERARY REVIEW)

'In this debut novel, Lindsay has created many things - a mesmerising plot, stomach-turning gore, a fantastic read and the ultimate paradox, a serial killer you just can't help but love. It's the stuff dark dreams are made of.' (DAILY RECORD)

'At last a serial killer with an innovative variation¿ With a nice leavening of wit and macabre horror, Lindsay has written a memorable debut.' (MANCHESTER CITY LIFE)

'Beautifully written, witty and amusing... An interesting read, which is funny as well as bizarre.' (TANGLED WEB Bernard Knight)

'Part thriller, part police procedural and part black comedy - but the overall read is more than the sum of its parts.' (SUNDAY MERCURY)

'The best spine chiller this month has to be DARKLY DREAMING DEXTER, an excellent debut from Jeff Lindsay... A refreshing voice in the serial killer genre, it's a treat.' (THE BOOKSELLER)

'Articulate and ghoulish, Dexter is one of a kind and his adventures never fail to entertain... Annoyingly clever.' (Maxim Jakubowski THE GUARDIAN)
