Dad is eager to mentor his daughter and she is eager to learn from him how to run an investigation though her patience runs thin when he becomes overprotective. Still while Kurt struggles to stop a religious extremist seemingly setting up a mass murder, Linda investigates on her own. Dad frets over her safety because of the disappearance of her friend Anna Westin, who vanished shortly after her father reentered her life. As Linda seeks clues from a variety of sources including Anna's journal, another young woman named in the journal vanishes. The case has the Wallenders arguing and putting up a firewall between them as the teacher-pupil relationship falls into a more adversarial situation.
