Cross and Sampson

Brought to you by Penguin.

Discover the thrilling spin-off to the bestselling Alex Cross series... now the inspiration for the original series CROSS on Prime Video starring Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross.

Detectives Alex Cross and John Sampson must divide and conquer when they’re sent to investigate two serious crimes.

In Washington DC, John Sampson stands in a crater in the middle of a street and calls in the bomb squad for a suspected terrorist attack.

In North Carolina, Alex Cross searches the apartment of a missing psychology grad student – his own son Damon. Has following in his famous father’s footsteps made Damon a target?

From FBI headquarters to police stations, airplanes to murder scenes, the detectives track crimes committed hundreds of miles apart.

It will take more than distance to weaken their unstoppable partnership.
