However, Maya was unaware the ladies had all just accidentally discovered the truth about Maya's secret affair with Leyla's teenager son, Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) and had justice on their minds...

There's been no sign of Maya in the village since, much to the alarm of her boyfriend David Metcalfe (Matthew Wolfenden) who suspects she's possibly still in a sulk over the drunken kiss between David and his soon-to-be ex-wife, Tracy.

But, Leyla, Tracy and Priya all know differently, having been the last ones to see Maya alive... out in the woods!

So what exactly happened when the ladies drove off with Maya from the nightclub? Did they have murder on their minds?

On Monday 6 May, Leyla makes a startling confession to her son Jacob...
