Teacher Laura Nielson is unsure about getting back on the dating scene, but when she meets renowned surgeon Andrew Earlham, there's more than just an initial attraction.

Laura's online attack on Andrew yields unexpected consequences as a figure from her past returns to haunt her, potentially jeopardising the case. She resorts to extreme measures.

Laura's worst fears come to pass and her hidden past is exposed, but she must fight to put her personal struggles aside for the sake of one of her pupils.

Laura heads to Edinburgh, keen to uncover the truth behind the death of Andrew's wife, but finds more than she bargained for. Meanwhile, tensions between Tom and Katy get worse.

When a deception in Laura's personal life comes to light, she is left with no one to turn to, and she resorts to dangerous methods to force Andrew's confession.

Terrified of arrest, Andrew enlists Luke's help as an alibi. But Laura will not give up easily, and the final match between the two is set to have violent consequences.
