Based on NY Times Bestselling author James Patterson’s #1 hero, Cross is a pulse-pounding crime thriller that follows the investigations of brilliant forensic psychologist and DC Metro Detective Alex Cross. Together with his best friend and partner Detective John Sampson, Cross delves into the psyches of insidious murderers while fighting to protect his family from the dangers of the criminal world.
Cross and Sampson are backed by a team of Washington DC detectives, along with FBI agent Kayla Craig. Together, they help Cross uncover the truth behind serial killers, high-profile kidnappings, and even a deadly personal stalker.
Yet all the backup in the world can’t save Cross from himself. Cross is driven by a deep desire to do right – especially by victims who don’t have the power to defend themselves. But he struggles with the psychological fallout of his work, desperate to insulate his family and everyone he loves.
