Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) made the enormous decision to look to the future in tonight's Coronation Street after a breakthrough in therapy – but is the past really dead and buried?
The detective sergeant has been fixated on finding out what really happened to late wife Becky Swain over the past few months, after revealing that she was being investigated for corruption before her death.
All of the mystery surrounding Becky's death has taken a toll on Lisa, especially since Craig Tinker's death brought back so many memories.
After making a mistake at work, Lisa was ordered to undergo a course of therapy, and after much resistance she finally began to open up in her most recent session.
She told her therapist that she was concerned that Becky really was corrupt, and got upset as she questioned how much she really knew her, before realising that all of her current issues stem from Becky's death.

Determined that she had to know the truth one way or another, Lisa went snooping through DI Costello's emails for any trace of Becky, though it wasn't long before she was caught.
Costello was furious at her breach of conduct, but was willing to let it slide provided she stop looking into Becky's corruption, assuring her that there was nothing in it.
However, Lisa was horrified to see that Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) had also requested access to Becky's files and wasted no time in confronting him to warn him off.
At home, Lisa confided in Carla Connor (Alison King) that she didn't want to be around liars, only to discover that Carla herself had been hiding something.

When Lisa stumbled across Carla's online search for a woman called Tia Wardley, Carla was forced to explain that she had visited Logan Radcliffe in prison, against Lisa's wishes.
Carla offered Logan money in exchange for information, and as a token of good faith he gave her a name.
However, Carla explained to a betrayed Lisa that the search had led nowhere, which led Lisa to wonder if there wasn't anything to find because Becky had been innocent all along.
Deciding to put the speculation behind her, Lisa took off Becky's wedding ring and told Carla that she was ready to move forward and fully devote herself to their relationship.

Unfortunately, there may still be secrets bubbling below the surface, as Logan faced a menacing visitor in his prison cell.
The fellow inmate told him that their 'mutual friend' wasn't happy about what he'd spilled to Carla, before shutting them both in the cell.
Could Becky have really been involved in something dodgy, and is Logan set to pay the price for pointing Carla in the right direction?
And is Lisa truly set to move on, or will she be dragged back into the mystery of Becky's death?
