In November 2024, Prime Video's crime thriller Cross introduced TV fans to their new favorite detective. Based on James Patterson's popular crime-fiction novels, the murder-mystery series stars Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross, a Washington, D.C.-based detective who uses his Ph.D. in psychology to investigate serial killers. In Cross's first season, the crime-solver is plagued by both his latest case, the murder of a beloved local activist, and the unsolved killing of his beloved wife one year earlier.
After eight pulse-pounding episodes, Cross ends with both of the first season's mysteries solved, but as any fan of the source novels knows, there's always another case on the horizon.
