From the world's #1 bestselling author: Alex Cross faces the deadliest psychopath of them all—his wife’s killer. Stream Season 2 of the #1-rated Cross in February 2026! Alex Cross was a rising star homicide detective in Washington, DC’s Metro PD when a shooter gunned down his pregnant wife, Maria. In the years since, Alex has built a career as a forensic psychologist, first at the FBI and then in private practice, all the while nursing his vengeance against the unknown killer who made him a widower and a single father. Then John Sampson, Alex’s best friend and former PD partner, comes to him with a potential break in the cold case. Was Maria’s murder connected to contract killer Michael Sullivan, aka “The Butcher of Sligo”—or possibly one of his mafia henchmen? The clues the detectives piece together lead the investigation far from the nation’s capital. But there is no boundary Alex won’t cross to get justice for his beloved late wife. “ Cross may be the ultimate in lunatic deadliness…Cross juggles being a single parent and being involved in the dangerous game of tracking serial killers.” – Publishers Weekly
