This book by Jim Thompson was highly recommended. Puts the Dexter series to shame. The first Dexter book was so pleasantly written, but lost its way in the sequels. This is a very different internal take, with a main character who is diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic (but who is clearly a clinical psychopath, to be pedantic) after killing a bunch of people to avenge his brother’s murder.

Rating: worth a read if you loved the first Dexter book.
