ICU nurse Max Mason fears his pregnant wife is the latest victim of a serial killer who is terrorizing their small New Hampshire town. The investigation is at a standstill after the prime suspect, Lincoln Raider, falls off a ladder and is now in a coma. In a desperate unethical act, Max sits at Lincoln's beside night after night employing brainwashing techniques and subliminal messaging to convince Linc that he and Max are kindred-spirits. When Lincoln awakens Max is sucked into the unbalanced whirlpool of the Huntsman's life, ultimately pulling Lincoln's own wife and daughter into the vortex as well.
