For over a decade, Dexter Morgan cut a swath through a mountain of Miami's finest murderers. Scarred forever as a child, rescued and trained by a cop on the edge, he delivered vigilante justice with a deadpan smile. Clawed his way to the top, to become the most successful serial killer in history.
Until the fates intervened.
Now for the past year, Miami Metro's top blood spatter analyst has been dancing to a different drummer. With Lumen at his side, as well as Slayer stepdaughter Astor, they've faced threats demonic and human; survived magickal curses intended to destroy their family, and laid to rest the ghosts of the past. But when a well-intended spell goes awry, Dexter finds himself thrown headlong into the strangest new world yet. A world with enemies at every turn...and the most unlikely allies. And where the desperate battle for truth may be the very instrument of his destruction.
"You are doing a great job in maintaining the suspense...a world of uncertainty and violence."

Tara meets with Vince and his crew. Lenore gets a glimpse of the wiring under the board. Vampire and Slayer meet again. The last temptation of Brian. Lumen wonders. An ultimatum for Dexter. Brian comes face to nonexistent face with evil. Vince and the crew discover another piece of the puzzle. More than one trap is set. Brian puts away childish things. Saved by the bell; one killer to another. And more than one trap is sprung. It's all here, in the decimultimate chapter of And the Devil Will Drag You Under.
