Plot[]
A traumatized Tosh is dumped, shoe-less and hooded, on the edge of the city as a 'warning' to Jimmy, returning to Shetland along with Asha, who resumes her relationship with Jimmy and tells Freya that Michael was about to reveal to her his true identity. The body of Michael's killer is washed up on a beach but McCall, now on bail, claims no knowledge of how it got there. Aware that the club Level 9 is of significance to the enquiry the Shetland officers discover that ten years earlier Michael was working there and had taken prostitute Kelly Paterson to hospital after she had been raped. Jimmy traces Kelly, who explains that, whilst Michael had always been good to her, club owner McCall had paid her to keep quiet and not tell the police as her rapist was a man with influential connections.
