Publisher's summary

With 1.7 million copies of the Dexter novels sold, and ever-increasing critical acclaim, Jeff Lindsay returns to his groundbreaking and beloved character with his most entertaining book yet. Get ready for a grisly send-up of Hollywood, and a full dose of dark Dexter wit.

Lights. Camera. Mayhem. You won't find this story on television.

Hollywood gets more than it bargained for when television's hottest star arrives at the Miami Police Department and develops an intense, professional interest in a camera-shy blood spatter analyst named Dexter Morgan.

Mega-star Robert Chase is famous for losing himself in his characters. When he and a group of actors descend on the Miami Police Department for "research", Chase becomes fixated on Dexter Morgan, the blood spatter analyst with a sweet tooth for doughnuts and a seemingly average life. To perfect his role, Chase is obsessed with shadowing Dexter's every move and learning what really makes him tick. There is just one tiny problem...Dexter's favorite hobby involves hunting down the worst killers to escape legal justice, and introducing them to his special brand of playtime. It's a secret best kept out of the spotlight and away from the prying eyes of bloated Hollywood egos if Dexter wants to stay out of the electric chair. The last thing he needs is bright lights and the paparazzi...but even Dexter isn't immune to the call of fame.

Jeff Lindsay's razor-sharp, devilish wit, and immaculate pacing prove that he is in a class of his own, and this new novel is his most masterful creation yet.

Not the Dexter I've Grown to Respect!

This was a weird story - not a lot like the Dexter I've grown to know and respect. This Dexter seemed to compromise his principals a bit, and just didn't have the same wits about him. The story was okay - but the ending was...kinda feeble. I was left with a sense of, "Really?" And, the plot-line itself was kinda thin - with too much convenient mechanisms for my taste. Hmmm! Oh well. Not sure if this was suppose to be the final Dexter book - or not. {Addendum - Guess not! There's one more!] Not sure I care, now. This series has been a roller-coaster of wonderful to tepid to decent. Consistency would be nice. Author did a decent job reading his own work - but then, I'm now use to that voice as Dexter - still, nothing to crow about.

Get the all the books

Dexter is very addictive and well written. Unfortunately I'm fixing to start the last one of the series. I hope Jeff keeps writing and gets us another Dexter like character.

Gotta Love Dexter!

Would you listen to Dexter's Final Cut again? Why?

Yes. The characters are deep and well developed and the story-telling is superb since the author speaks his own words.

What did you like best about this story?

Dexter evolves in little ways in each book, but big changes are afoot in this one. Mr. Lindsay's description of the inner workings of Dexter's mind and his Dark Passenger's are sometimes chilling - does he know the material too well, you think.

Any additional comments?

Keep more coming!

Absolutely Amazing

I can't imagine higher praise to heap upon the author. Jeff has crafted amazing stories for Deranged Debonair Dexter in this tale of selfishness, of desire, of vanity, of arrogance, and of pride before a fall.

Better ending then the show

Any additional comments?

The ending was very depressing, but better then the ending to the show. I wish this book had more involvement with his family because they are hilarious.

dexter becoming human

We may see Dexter become closer to human than even he thought possible. But humans can get distracted and make mistakes.
