## Key points

- Dan Stevens joins as the season’s new Five Borough Killer.
- Dexter balances vigilantism with trying to support Harrison.
- The review says episode two finds a stronger rhythm.

## Summary

The review highlights a new threat in *Dexter: Resurrection* season two: the Five Borough Killer, played by Dan Stevens, whose ordinary appearance masks a disturbing appetite for murder. The first two episodes suggest the show is finding a more confident blend of suspense and dark humour, while giving Dexter fresh doubts about his work and his efforts to be there for his son.

Dexter is back in New York, where Harrison, now a police academy graduate, starts in the NYPD homicide division and works with Lieutenant Claudette Wallace on the New York Ripper investigation. Their chief suspect is Don Framt, played by Brian Cox; Uma Thurman returns as Charley and Desmond Harrington as Joey Quinn. The review finds the premiere rushed but says the second episode has a better rhythm.
