The Business of Blood

Fiona Mahoney Mystery, Book 1

By: Kerrigan Byrne

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Dying is the only thing people do with any regularity, and Fiona makes her indecorous living cleaning up after the corpses are carted away. Her childhood best friend, Mary, was the last known victim of Jack the Ripper. It's been two years since Fiona scrubbed Mary's blood from the floorboards, and London is no longer buzzing about the Ripper, but Fiona hasn't forgotten.

And she hasn't stopped searching for Jack.

When she's called to a murder in the middle of the night, Fiona finds a victim mutilated in an eerily similar fashion to those of the Ripper, and only a few doors down from Mary's old home. The relentless, overbearing, and irritatingly handsome Inspector Grayson Croft warns her away from the case. She might have listened, if she hadn't found a clue in the blood. A clue that will lead her down a path from which there is no return. As a killer cuts a devastating swath through London, a letter written in blood arrives at her door, and it is only then that Fiona realizes just how perilous her endeavor is. For she has drawn the attention of an obsessive evil and is no longer the hunter, but the prey.

Contains mature themes.

Loved the actual Irish accent

The story was great and I really enjoyed it. I loved the speaker she was perfect for the voice! I laughed out loud a few times. I love Fionas firey personality and weird job and connections it was great fun to listen to.

Great start to a series

I really enjoyed this mystery and can’t wait to read the others! I liked the characters and I didn’t see that ending coming!

Fantastic

Some stories take a few chapters to get into, but not this one. Entertaining from start to finish

Loved it!

This was my first encounter with both the author and the narrator and both were fantastic! I cannot wait to read/listen to Fiona's next adventure.

A great listen

The narrator was perfect and brought the character to life. The story is a little focused on building a world but still amazing.
