The WOMEN who will DESTROY PHELAN!
THE STREET KILLER HAS THE BLOOD OF FOUR MEN ON HIS HANDS, BUT IT’S THE WOMEN OF WEATHERFIELD WHO WILL ULTIMATELY BRING HIM DOWN…
ANNA How he did her wrong
As a target of Phelan’s viciousness, Anna has endured rape, heartbreak and prison. He blackmailed her into having sex with him to save her family and wrecked her relationships with Owen Armstrong and Kevin, and now Anna faces years behind bars for a crime she didn’t commit.
How she’ll defeat him
Anna won’t stop fighting because it’s her kids who’ll suffer if Phelan wins. She’s a lioness where Gary and Faye are concerned, and she knows their lives will be ruined if she gives up. Anna is driven by her maternal instincts, and she’ll go to any lengths to protect her family…
NICOLA How he did her wrong
Discovering Phelan was her biological father changed Nicola’s life. Having finally accepted that mum Annabel had cheated on her dad Isaac, Nicola was sickened to learn that the affair was a lie – instead, she now knows Annabel was raped by Phelan, and that her mum and Isaac kept the secret all their lives.
How she’ll defeat him
Phelan’s survival relies on staying one step ahead of his enemies, but Nicola is intelligent enough to pick holes in his stories. It didn’t take long for her to rip apart his web of lies about her mum, and if Phelan makes the wrong move, clever Nicola will be ready to pounce!
EILEEN How he did her wrong
Phelan wronged his wife by fleecing her son Jason’s inheritance money to build his dodgy development. He used Eileen to create a veneer of respectability, and has lied to her at every turn. Eileen’s faith in him has cost her friends, family and her good reputation.
How she’ll defeat him
Eileen’s honesty will be Phelan’s biggest problem. She’s tried to convince herself otherwise, but Eileen knows in her heart of hearts that Anna is right about him. She won’t rest until she gets the truth – and then she’ll have no choice but to come clean to everyone.
STEPH How he did her wrong
Steph believed she was jilted by boyfriend Andy – but as she was boarding a plane for a new life abroad alone, he was Phelan’s hostage. Following months at his mercy, Andy was gunned down by Phelan – who went on to brutally murder Steph’s brother Luke, too.
How she’ll defeat him
Steph is a natural-born interrogator, having unearthed Peter’s affair with Tina Mcintyre and Andy’s identity theft, and she won’t stop till she gets answers. Steph knows Phelan was blackmailing her boyfriend – and if she finds Andy’s friend Matt and manages to put the pieces together, Phelan is finished.
FAYE How he did her wrong
Thanks to Phelan’s manipulation, Faye cut off mum Anna after coming to believe she had tried to kill her boyfriend Seb. Now she knows that Seb’s fall from the ladder was an accident and that Phelan set up Anna for attempted murder.
How she’ll defeat him
Faye has the perfect chance to catch Phelan because he’s too arrogant to see a young girl as a threat. She’s desperate to get Anna out of prison, and knows proving Phelan’s guilt is the key. He’s less likely to be suspicious of babyfaced Faye asking questions than any of his adult enemies.
GAIL How he did her wrong
After reuniting with soulmate Michael Rodwell, Gail was ready for her happy ever after – until Phelan obliterated her dreams. Michael had almost exposed Phelan’s development fraud when his dicky ticker gave out, and the evil builder watched him die without lifting a finger to help.
How she’ll defeat him
Gail knows what it’s like to love a serial killer – and while they are sworn enemies, Eileen will surely turn to Gail with her suspicions. Odds are that the former Mrs Richard Hillman will recognise all the signs and be only too glad to help avenge her lost love…
