Ben was working on a difficult case involving young Eastern European women and different groups of organised criminals. He was completely consumed by the case and eventually it got too close for comfort, at least that was what Diane felt. She tried to convince him that by being so involved with thess organised criminals he was putting his family at risk. Ben dismissed her worries but just a week later they received a letter with a warning. If Ben didn't stop investigating the case something would happen to hs family. Again, Ben dismissed it but in order to calm Diane a police officer was assigned to be with the family and keep an eye on them. However, Louisa was still allowed to go to school (they didn't want to scare her) and one afternoon she was suddenly missing even though teachers had been informed that they she shouldn't be left unattended.
Louisa was found two hours later on a street near the school. She was very upset and crying. Eventually they realised that she was physically fine, no one had done anything to her, but they had threatened to kill her family and her if she didn't tell her father to "stop looking for something he won't find". They had given her a very graphic description of how they would kill her but after that they had let her go. Naturally, this was a terrible experience for the whole family and extremely traumatic for Louisa. Ben decided to hand over the case to someone else. He hated to admit that they had succeeded but he just couldn't put his family at risk any more. Louisa went to see a therapist but disliked and said that she would rather talk to her mum and dad. Ben and Diane tried a different therapist but Louisa refused to say anything. Since Louisa had been very open about her feelings and thoughts they decided to let her carry on with her life as usual. Except a few nightmares every now and then Louisa seems to be fine.
