Home and Away introduces a ruthless new character on UK screens next week, as the mysterious Andrew Lawrence storyline continues.

Andrew is confronted by a woman claiming to be from his past after Theo Poulos puts out an appeal for information on social media.

The lady arrives at the local police station and introduces herself as Esther Lawrence, Andrew's mother.

'Esther' claims that she has been searching for Andrew for several years, as his father Archie – who had links to a cult – kidnapped him when he was just a young boy.

Cash Newman and Justin Morgan set up a meeting between Andrew and his mum, but the teenager becomes overwhelmed and ends up storming off.

Justin steps in to offer Andrew some advice about reuniting with his mother, while Leah Patterson spends time listening to 'Esther' as she speaks about her supposed long search for her missing son.

Feeling guilty for rejecting 'Esther', Andrew reluctantly tells Justin and Leah that he'd like to go and live with his mum.

Respecting this decision, the couple say an emotional goodbye to Andrew.

Later in the week, Cash enjoys the respite from a busy time at work, having become exhausted by the Andrew case.

The policeman enjoys some time alone with his girlfriend Eden Fowler, which proves to be especially peaceful as his sister Felicity is away in the city.

When Cash eventually returns to work, he receives a nasty shock as the task force who have been investigating Andrew's case share an alarming update.

Cash's colleagues confirm that the woman they sent Andrew home with was not his mother.

The lady in question was Margot, the leader of the sinister cult which has already caused so much damage to Andrew during his upbringing.

As Cash bitterly regrets not checking out Margot's story properly, can he make amends and bring Andrew safely back to the Bay?
