Jeff Lindsay is an American crime writer who lives in south Florida. Lindsay is best known for writing the Dexter series of novels.
The first book in the series, Darkly Dreaming Dexter, was included on the original nomination list for the Mystery Writers of America's Edgar Awards in the Best First Novel category. However, it was dropped from the list after the group learned that Lindsay had put out several books in the 1990s under his full name, Jeffrey P. Lindsay. [1]
A TV series called Dexter is currently airing on the US cable network Showtime, with the first season of 12 episodes being based on the first novel of the series, Darkly Dreaming Dexter. The show has been renewed for a second season, and it is likely that the second season storyline will be based on the follow-up novel, Dearly Devoted Dexter.
