Explained simply
Dexter: Resurrection is a crime drama centred on Dexter Morgan, a killer who has tried to build a life around his son, Harrison. His past violence puts him at odds with the police, including detectives who have investigated his crimes.
Angel Batista, a former police colleague of Dexter, was killed in the first season. Joey Quinn is another detective whose connection to Batista links him to the case, while Harrison is beginning a career in law enforcement. The series also features investigations into the New York Ripper and the Five Borough Killer.
These overlapping relationships and cases shape the show’s central tension: whether Dexter can keep his past hidden while those around him pursue other crimes. The story draws on earlier seasons, so events involving former colleagues and family remain relevant.
