Biography
Lena Beck was kidnapped 13 years ago and forced to live in captivity. At the time, she was pregnant with Hannah, who was fathered by her ex-boyfriend Florian.

While in captivity, Lena gave birth to Hannah, Jonathan and Sara. After giving birth to Sara, Lena and the baby both died from childbed fever, as her captor refused to get a doctor. After her death, Lena's captor kidnapped another woman and forced her to assume Lena's identity and raise the children. Her captor continued doing this after each "Lena" died.

While in captivity, Lena, Hannah and Jonathan were forced to abide by strict rules. Every time their captor entered their bedroom, they had to show both sides of their hands.

The final woman to be kidnapped and forced to live as Lena was Jasmin Grass.
