| ~ Isaak Sirko sizing up Dexter Morgan. |
Isaak Sirko (also known as Volk, Russian for "The Wolf") is one of the two main antagonists (alongside Maria LaGuerta) in Season 7 of Dexter. Isaak is the leader of the Koshka Brotherhood and a businessman who runs various strip clubs, especially one in Miami called the Foxhole.
He was portrayed by the late Ray Stevenson, who also played Murlough in Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant, Roger Wesley in The Other Guys, Firefly in G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Gar Saxon and Baylan Skoll in the Star Wars franchise, Big Ray in Accidental Man, Arkady in Final Score and Scott Buxton in RRR.
History[]
Isaak comes to Miami to investigate the disappearance of his associate - and secret lover - Viktor Baskov. When Isaak discovers Viktor was murdered by Dexter Morgan during his investigation, he becomes obsessed with killing Dexter. Isaak attempts to kill Dexter so many times that it sends him to prison when Dexter lures him into a shootout with the Colombian mob, who are rivals of the Ukrainians.
Dexter asks Isaak if their conflict is now over, but Isaak warns him that they will see each other again. Later, Isaak is accosted by a fellow prisoner and fatally wounded. With his last breath, Isaak says that there is still hope for Dexter.
Genuinely saddened by Isaak's death, Dexter honors his final wish and throws his body into the ocean, allowing him to rest in peace and be with Viktor again.

Trivia[]
- Isaak is the wealthiest and most powerful main antagonist in the series. The second most wealthy antagonist is Jordan Chase. Unlike Isaak, Jordan's thugs are not loyal to him and Jordan himself is not a skilled fighter or a marksman.
- According to a podcast interview with Michael C. Hall, Isaak was initially meant to be killed by Dexter (presumably by beating him to death with a fire extinguisher like Viktor Baskov) and used as bait to lure LaGuerta in the season finale, however, the script needed to be changed because of conflicts in Ray Stevenson's schedule.
- He is the fourth main antagonist who is not a serial killer.
- Isaak has a love of opera, stating that Nadezhda Obukhova is a singer to whom he often listened in his youth.
- Isaak's favorite drinks are small coffees, as he's seen drinking at least one in every episode.
