The series follows Fiona Sharpe (Silverstone), whose path in life is earmarked by her father, Declan, who seemingly abandoned her and her mother on her tenth birthday. After years of channeling anger toward him, to the benefit of her litigious clients, a message from her father sends her to Ireland. There she learns key truths about her father as well as a family that doesn’t know she exists, and, moreover, that the story of abandonment that has shaped her entire life – was a lie. A lie intended to protect her and her mother from her father’s shady business dealings. Fiona resolves to uncover the full truth about her father and reconnect with the parent she only thought she knew.

About Irish Blood

The series centers on Fiona Sharpe, played by Silverstone, whose life has been influenced by her father, Declan. When Fiona was ten, her father seemingly left her and her mother, which has fueled her resentment towards him while she assists her clients in legal battles. The narrative takes a significant turn when a message from Declan leads her to Ireland, prompting her to confront unresolved family secrets. As Fiona delves deeper, she discovers the truth surrounding her father’s departure—a truth crafted to shield her and her mother from the complexities of his business affairs. This journey unfolds the layers of her family’s history, challenging her perceptions and igniting a desire to reconnect with the father she believed she knew.
