The Doctor Blake Mysteries (2013)

In the shadowy folds of Ballarat, a gothic gold rush town, the echoes of its once resplendent wealth are drowned by the whispers of mysteries, murder, and deceit. Dr Lucien Blake, once a native son, finds destiny drawing him back into Ballarat's embrace. His inheritance extends beyond his father's medical practice; he is also bequeathed the unenviable duty of being the town's on-call police surgeon. The year is 1959, and the grandeur of Ballarat's architecture, borne from the forgotten gold rush, stands as a stark contrast to the faded glory it now represents. Dr Blake, who left as a young man, is now thrust into the heart of the town's complex web of secrets. The role he never desired becomes the very essence of his returning journey. As he probes the underbelly of Ballarat's deceit, the town unfurls its dark mysteries to him, one murder at a time. His surgical precision extends beyond the operating table as he dissects the layers of crime, unveiling truths that many wish would remain buried. Returning to Ballarat was not just about continuing his father's legacy; it was about becoming the town's reluctant sentinel, standing against the tide of murder and treachery lurking beneath its surface. This is the intriguing story of Dr Lucien Blake, a man who finds himself drawn into the web of mysteries that have haunted his hometown for too long.
