A Murder Mystery with family on the line

At its heart, Irish Blood is a story about identity, legacy, and trust wrapped in layers of suspense. The trailer opens with a beautiful scenic shot of Ireland, where we meet Fiona for the first time as she explains:

"You wanna know how I ended up here. I blame him. After 30 years of no word. I am going to Ireland to ask him how he could leave me."

However, as Fiona begins to investigate her father's sudden disappearance, she learns some shocking and hard-hitting truths. Her father didn't just vanish — he was buried under a mountain of debt. And the bigger twist? The family and friends in Ireland had no idea about her existence. As someone uttered in the trailer:

"Declan didn't have a daughter."

Fiona doesn't flinch even after knowing the harsh truth. With a clip of her father warning that if anything wrong happens to him, it wasn't an accident — it was foul play, she gets in touch with the authorities and informs them:

"My dad's missing. I have to find him. Help me."

The suspenseful trailer ends with Fiona's words of wisdom:

"You want my advice? Trust no one."

Irish Blood is more than a whodunnit. It is a story of self-reckoning, betrayal, and the painful truth that the past doesn't stay buried for long.
