A widowed housewife named Miranda must confront her sordid past when victims of a death row serial killer – the Hitchcock Hacker – return from the dead via a mysterious vine that runs under her house. They want revenge, and only she can help them get it.

Luke McCan, a nine-year-old runaway, was the Hacker's last victim. Nearly ten years after his murder, he has returned from beyond Plexus – an organic afterlife paradise – seeking revenge. But a copycat killer has also come to Hitchcock. Driven by the Hacker's powerful telepathy, he will kill until the Hacker controls Plexus forever.  

Staci Morgan is lured into dual mental states with a killer when she accepts an internship with the agency investigating Copycat murders in Hitchcock. Manipulated by the Hacker's telepathy, she must appease his desire to know the mother who rejected him while she searches for the mother who abandoned her. When she discovers the horrible truths behind the lies, she must race to stop the Copycat before it's too late.
