In a busy town of Canley in the borough of London housed people from footballer wannabes and foodies and not to forget the police officers who protect the streets of London, but in some streets they were so peaceful not a scream or a squeal could be heard from a far.
At the dead of night, when all the little children lay in bed sleeping dreaming about fairies whilst their parents dreamt about keeping people happy and safe, but on this particular night the silence was disturbed and all could be heard outside the houses was a blast sound coming from the exhaust of a rundown ford estate car.
In the house lay a lonely detective willing herself to sleep, but sleep couldn't come all she was thinking about is her past, a dark figured appeared in her sights a few days ago bringing back memories of her past that she put behind her or so she thought, but soon her sleep was disrupted by a loud screech of tyres, rubber against tarmac burning as the driver brakes suddenly, and soon there was an almighty bang on the door, she rushes out of her bed getting clothes on in a hurry, not knowing what could happen to her at any moment.
Walking down the stairs to her small hall way walking through the small hall leading to her front door where all the commotion was happening, she opens the door and all grace sees is a man from her past armed with a crowbar and a gun, he pistol whips her on the side of her face knocking her to the ground and immobilizing her with a powerful kick to her side making her gasp for air, lay on the ground holding her side trying to breathe through the pain the man hits her again until she is comatose.
Once in a unconscious state he wraps her lifeless body in a blanket and he picks her up in a bridal style fashion, he carries her out her house like nothing happened, walking back to her house he grabs her house keys locking the door behind him, he puts the keys under the mat before he leaves her now empty house with her in tow.

Unknown ware house on the jasmine Allen estate
Her vision was blurry as she regained consciousness, feeling as if she drank the night before all grace felt when she woke was an almighty pain encasing her head, the pain felt so severe that she could not move her head to try and see where she was being held, but she kept her mind busy trying to figure out where she was because she lives on a posh street which is not far from the jasmine Allen estate, when she was in the car she felt the movement of the vehicle and all the sharp turns the kidnapper took to bring her to her finale place, the place she is in now.
In the warehouse she had time to think about Neil and their relationship and how it had blossomed to the next stages like other people describe it like hitting base 1 then 2 then so on, but she thought hard about the first time together in the same bed and how he made her feel special, and when she was working with him he showed compassion towards her and her thoughts and opinions towards the case, being here made her think how she wanted to tell Neil all about her past with Davdra and matt the man who kidnapped her from her house during the night.
After a while of being sat in the same position for a few hours was getting to her, and she thought about Neil and hoping that he was the one who came and rescued her along with their team of expert police officers, since she joined sun hill she felt at home like they were her family and now neil and she would be a family with jake, him, her and another addition to their family, but after a while exhaustion and pain got to her and soon she was taken back into a deep slumber.

Sun hill police station
Neil bustles round his office in a flustered manner, looking through his phone checking his last phone calls from his girlfriend Grace, since she didn't turn up to work he got really concerned but know he found something out about her past, then he comes up with an idea, the idea is to dig into grace's past history find out her secrets, before he tells his boss that his best detective has gone missing.
Neil leaves his office and gathers all his team for a briefing, with smithy and any other officers involved.
"Ok everyone involved the drugs case, in the briefing room please and smithy please join us, also bring any information on our suspect Mr Davdra, and start from the top" asks Neil?
Everyone gathers in the CID briefing room, after all the seats are taken Neil leads the briefing, allowing smithy to start his explanation, but before he could start in walks the jack meadows the superintendent ask them for an update.
"Neil what's this I hear grace hasn't turned up to work today" asks jack walking into the briefing room sitting beside Jo Masters.
"Err yeah sir but we may have a good reason and a connection, smithy knows more than us and I was going to ask him to explain who this guy is and to start from the beginning sir" says Neil pointing to the picture of Davdra.
"Ok smithy goes ahead" says Jack giving the inspector the go ahead ton talk.
"Right we are all familiar with the Carly Samuel's murder trial, well meet the guy who tried to defend the murderers, this is Mr Sunil Davdra, this morning Nate and Kirsty responded to a disturbance call to an alleyway near the aldborn estate, they chased the suspect but lost him, they headed back to the alleyway and that's when they found this man unconscious on the floor bleeding, they searched his bag and found drugs, he regained consciousness at the hospital and refused to give his name, they threatened him with charges but he didn't budge, but after Kirsty introduced herself and told him where they were from he got rattled, they did some digging into the drugs and his prints were found on the bag containing the drugs, and he got rattled by the last words, so they brought it to my attention" explains Smithy.
"Ok so someone injured the defence barrister from the Carly Samuel's murder, this is not a revenge attack" asks Jack.
"I don't think so" says Smithy.
"Why would this not be revenge, and what did Kirsty and Nate say to the man to get him rattled up" asks Neil?
"They said to him they would involve CID and putting that in to consideration after they informed him they were from sun hill police station" answers smithy.
"So he just got rattled after hearing the name of this nick and involving us" says Jo wandering where it's going.
"yeah but there's more to it than meets the eye, I read the information on the system about Mr davdra, it says that he lost his job six months ago, plus there is also a citation from his university days, he got arrested for assaulting his girlfriend at the time but she retracted" explains smithy.
"Ok so this guy s bad and what's grace got to do with it" asks Jack.
"Sunil davdra's ex-girlfriend from university is Grace" answers Smithy.
"So our mystery guy is grace's ex from her past, and knows he has been injured and he is a drug addict" says Neil summing up his thoughts.
"Yep, I thought grace may have done it, but I checked she has not had any contact with him since the Carly Samuel's murder trial, but I check his phone records he tried to call grace a few times over the last few weeks "explains smithy.
"So what we going to do now gov" asks Jo.
"Jo, mickey go and speak to Mr Davdra, about everything and if he has seen grace recently, oh and if he doesn't talk arrest him for possession of a controlled substance with intent to supply" orders Jack.
"sir" answers Jo walking out the briefing room along with mickey behind her, but soon Kirsty walks in with a piece of paper in hand.
"Pc knight what can you tell us about this man" asks Jack interested in knowing everything.
"Not much but that's not why am here sir, the lab just rang they can confirm the drugs are cocaine, but they say they also found another set of fingerprints on the bag, they look like they are from the person who gave him the drugs" explains Kirsty handing the paper over to him.
"Did they get a match in the system" asks Jack.
"Yeah they did, and he also used to be a lawyer" answers Kirsty.
"Oh great more lawyers, how is this one connected to Mr Davdra" asks Neil?
"And how did he lose his job" asks Max.
"it says he was arrested for abusing his wife, but he tried to cover his tracks and make out she was the abuser, before he was arrested she hit him over the head with a hard object, it also says that an inspector Gina gold and jo masters investigated, in the end they arrested him" answers Kirsty.
"What's the name of the suspect" asks Jack.
"Matt Hinckley" answers Kirsty.
"Great so we can't touch him but how does he tie into grace's disappearance" asks Neil.
"If this guy went to university with the drug addict maybe grace new him, but we could speak to the guys ex-wife maybe he discussed his past with her before she bashed him" says Max making a suggestion.
"That's a good idea, but we can't" answers Terry.
"Why because I made the suggestion" asks Max.
"No, since matt Hinckley's ex-wife is dead, she died in the line of duty, in the bombings a year ago" answers Terry
"Oh am sorry but I remember the bombings and to my recollection it was Emma keane who died, no way don't tell me" says Max realizing who the guys ex-wife is.
"yep they fell in love and married a few months later, but he kept his past secretive, but further investigating turns up he had a n ex who he said was dead, turns out she went underground without telling anyone what happened, it turns out matt abused her to, and she told the truth" explains terry.
"Well find out where she is know and go and talk to her, terry and max do that, Stevie and Neil team up with uniform and try and find grace" orders Neil.
Everyone leaves the briefing room, doing their jobs.

Unknown warehouse
Grace sat against the cold brick wall, she took in her surroundings, eyeing every inch of the place she was being kept, then something comes to her the floor is hard and bedded with sand and hay, this concoction remind her of a place that was used once to hide a police officer so a gang could beat him up, then it dawned on her she was not in a ware house but a small underground space beneath the flats of the jasmine Allen estate, soon her thoughts are clouded when she feels the bile rise up in the back of her throat reminding her of Neil and other things she is missing out on, soon the she can't control the bile from coming up, she leans to her left side and heaves to one side, she coughs up whatever is in her stomach, but soon the man holding her captive comes in and sees her being sick.
"Matt you should let me go, they will be out looking for me" says Grace trying to bargain with her enemy.
"Well I don't see your boyfriend coming for you, or the stupid officers of sun hill, so maybe they have forgotten you, I will let you go when I get my money" says Matt grabbing her jaw spitting into her face as he talked.
"He won't get it, but if you don't let me go I will tell them the truth about you and all the other women you abused over the years including me" says Grace threatening.
"You won't" says Matt.
"wanna bet" says Grace, but before she could matt his her on the side of the head knocking her out cold, before leaving her to go and spy on other people.
