Season 5 opens with a hand washing up on a beach in Shetland. Hours later, more human remains arrive in a bag thrown into the sea.

Jimmy Perez, played by Douglas Henshall, leads the case with his team and, at the same time, searches for a vulnerable young woman. Their investigation uncovers a human trafficking ring spreading through rural Scotland. Meanwhile, two feuding families divide the entire community and complicate every step of the investigation.
