Amazon Prime VideoAlex Cross is a brilliant but flawed homicide detective and full of contradictions. A doting father and family man, Cross is single-minded to the point of obsession when he hunts killers. He is desperate for love, but his wife’s murder has left him too damaged to receive it.
In this first season of “Cross” — in a sign of confidence, it was already renewed for Season 2 earlier this year — Alex finds himself pursuing a prolific, meticulous serial killer while trying to solve the mystery of his late wife’s murder. It is an exhilarating series that goes beyond victims and murderers to examine mental health and unhealthy fixations. Centering on two different mysteries woven throughout eight episodes, “Cross” is shocking and exciting.
Cross: Created by Ben Watkins. With Aldis Hodge, Juanita Jennings, Alona Tal, Samantha Walkes. Series adaptation of James Patterson novels about the complicated and brilliant detective, Alex Cross.
