Explained simply
Dexter Morgan is a fictional forensic blood-spatter analyst who secretly kills people he believes have escaped justice. The television franchise follows his attempts to balance that secret life with family and work, while those around him try to understand who he really is.
In Resurrection, Dexter is living in New York and raising his son, who is beginning to show signs of a violent side of his own. The story also brings in two killers: the New York Ripper, an older murderer who taunts survivors, and the Five Borough Killer, who is still at large.
The family conflict and the pursuit of the killers are linked by Dexter’s effort to guide his son while keeping his own past hidden. Michael C. Hall plays Dexter, with Brian Cox and Dan Stevens among the actors playing the new antagonists.
