A captivating narrative, further enriched by Wheeler's longstanding connection to the story, has been captivating readers across various publications. The Financial Times has hailed it as "moving" and "angering," while The Times has described it as "heart-wrenching." In the 1970s and 1980s, a tragic incident unfolded as nearly 5,000 haemophiliacs were infected with HIV or hepatitis C after receiving contaminated NHS blood products. Tragically, over 2,800 individuals have lost their lives, making this the worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS.

For two decades, political editor Caroline Wheeler has been diligently reporting on this scandal, playing a pivotal role in the campaign for justice for the victims. Her unwavering dedication and commitment have brought their stories to the forefront, shaping the heart of this compelling book. As the long-running Infected Blood Inquiry reaches its final verdict, "Death in the Blood" emerges as an unforgettable epic of human suffering, loss, and unwavering survival against insurmountable odds.

Caroline's unwavering support for the victims and survivors of the NHS contaminated blood scandal has been nothing short of extraordinary. She has been an integral part of our long fight for justice, providing solace and empowerment to those who had previously felt silenced. Her unwavering commitment has allowed individuals like Ade Goodyear, a former pupil at Treloar School, to confidently share their stories, shedding light on the profound impact of this tragedy.

Through her tireless efforts, Caroline Wheeler has ensured that the voices of those affected by this scandal are heard loud and clear. Her dedication to justice and her commitment to telling the truth have helped to bring about change and hold those responsible accountable for their actions. "Death in the Blood" serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of storytelling to bring about lasting change.
