In the latest instalment, an uneasy truce is called with Grantley, leading Davis and Bart to investigate a dinghy washed up on the beach, which links back to the Stolthet. As clothing fibres are discovered on the dinghy, tensions rise as Macmillan moves to impound the Stolthet, and Bart and Lindo question Captain Nielsen. Meanwhile, Mallick and Monty tour the NRPS warehouse with an increasingly nervous Nazir.
