Devastated by the collapse of her 14 –year marriage in August 1998, Jane Griffiths’ intention of going to Paris the following month, was to take a much needed break that would allow her get over the hurt of losing her husband to another woman. Unfortunately for Jane, her drink was spiked with a date rape drug; by a fellow guest at the hotel they were both staying. She never saw the man, Chris, again, and neither did she intend telling anyone about her holiday nightmare. Three years later, her teenage son started subjecting women to the same ordeal and Jane wouldn’t just watch Mark do that. Ironically, Jane had to testify against her son in court and this resulted in a jail sentence . But unknown to Mark, not only had his mother been raped in the past, the man who violated his mum is also locked up in the same prison. Fate brought the two together and you can only imagine what would happen when a son comes face to face with the man that raped his mother.
Meanwhile, it was while Mark was standing trial at the Old Bailey that one of the trainee teachers in Shirley’s – Jane’s childhood friend- school was also subjected to a sexual assault. The teacher struggled with her attacker, held on for a while, but the rapist managed to break away, but losing one of his shoes in the process.
The news of the teacher’s attack got to her colleagues, and what a shocker Shirley got, on discovering that the attacker’s abandoned shoe looked very much like that of Brian, her son. Of course, it turned out to be the one she gave him on his last birthday. Shirley couldn’t turn a blind eye to what her son had done to her colleague.
