Alex Cross is a psychologist who hunts criminals for the FBI and the DC Metro Police.

Family matriarch Nana Mama is proud of the man she raised. 

Every morning, Alex retrieves his service pistol from the lockbox. 

Every morning, Nana is stopped cold. The sight releases a protective instinct she can barely control. 

“Alex!” she calls. “Be safe, hon.”

He grins at her. “Every day, Nana.” 

Alex Cross exits into a shadowy underworld of Washington, DC, where few ever visit, least of all law enforcement. 

With every step, he risks breaking his promise to Nana Mama—and the entire family Cross.
