As Dexter Morgan continues to struggle with his identity as a killer and his urge to kill, he finds himself drawn to a serial killer called the "Bay Harbor Butcher." The Butcher, who is actually Dexter himself, has been targeting other killers in an effort to rid the world of those who have escaped justice.

In "The Dark Defender," Dexter becomes obsessed with the idea of the Bay Harbor Butcher being a hero, and even begins to see himself as a sort of vigilante defender of justice. He starts to wear a costume and takes on the identity of the "Dark Defender," using his skills as a killer to target those who have committed terrible crimes.

Meanwhile, the police are closing in on the Bay Harbor Butcher, and Dexter's sister Debra is determined to catch the killer and bring him to justice. As she investigates the case, she becomes more and more convinced that the Butcher is someone close to her, and she begins to suspect her own brother.

As Dexter struggles to balance his life as a killer with his relationships with those around him, he finds himself drawn further and further into the world of the Dark Defender. But as he becomes more and more obsessed with the idea of being a hero, he begins to lose sight of reality and the consequences of his actions.
