There are several twists in the finale. The dead boy was someone who died of a heroin overdose.
DCI Banks believes that Kyle might have been involved in drug dealing. However whoever is organising it might be using mini cabs or even ice cream vans.
Morton still believes that Kyle's mother is behind it all. Maybe to get money from Kyle's father by way of a ransom. However Morton's thinking might be clouded due to her own tearaway son.
Banks thinks that Kyle's father is not squeaky clean.
The suspect believed to be the kidnapper. He is someone who had a long criminal record but might have turned a corner. Banks thinks that he might even be trying to protect Kyle.
This was a multilayered story. Several suspects, a few with a shady past. Someone who believes that society is falling apart and wants to do something about it.
