Another woman is found discarded in a coal pile on Dublin&#8217;s south docks. Sub-Inspector Barn Blake, a policeman with a talent for solving macabre murders, is put on the case. However higher authorities in the state would prefer the murders to remain unsolved and make every effort to hinder him. In the course of his investigation, he is attacked and infected with a deadly affliction leaving him with only seven days to stop the killer. Facing his own mortality and an increasingly confusing set of circumstances, Blake is exposed to a world he never knew existed and must come to terms with his place in it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.audible.co.uk\/pd\/B0DHD7R5CB\/?source_code=AUKFrDlWS02231890H6-BK-ACX0-414395&amp;ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_414395_rh_uk\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3323\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/niallmilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blakes-blood-findaway-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-b10267a4 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-864eb891 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blake&#8217;s Blood Book 1 of the Barn Blake Mysteries Dublin, 1883.
