#66 Dexter in the Dark by Jeff Lindsay

This is the third Dexter book. This takes a bit of a turn that I think some people might not like about the books. The writer has decided to switch ideas about Dexter's Dark Passenger. I thought the take was interesting but if you don't care for SF flavored mysteries you might not like the direction the series is moving. Now I have to hold out for a while for the next book to see what he will do with the plot points he has developed.

I, of course, have read the books as soon as I found out about them. I found the Passenger stuff in #3 to be interesting. I'm looking forward to #4.

Now, see, i just thought he did a lousy job with the whole idea of the Dark Passenger that was not only not interesting, but was a big 'i have no ideas to back up what I started' cop-out. He didn't commit to the idea completely, and he departed from the world as he originally created it. Just gave up on the series after this.
