Blood Brothers is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV given to protagonist Niko Bellic by LCPD Deputy Police Commissioner Francis McReary from outside the public park in Castle Gardens, Algonquin, Liberty City.
Description
Francis sends Niko a text message telling him to meet him at a sidewalk close to a park in southern Algonquin. Francis pulls up in a Landstalker and admonishes Niko for not letting him know that he has been working with his drug-addled brother, Derrick. Francis explains that Derrick intends to talk to a journalist about their family and Francis' corruption, which would put his career in the police force into jeopardy. Thus, Francis firmly suggests to Niko to "stop" Derrick from doing so.
Francis is meeting Derrick at a park in Lancet to give Niko the opportunity to kill him. Later, Derrick contacts Niko to tell him about the meeting and voices his fear that Francis wants him dead and asks Niko to go to the meeting and kill Francis. Niko must choose between the two brothers, and for the second time, kill one or the other.
Mission Objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to the courtyard park in Lancet.
- Use the window cleaning platform, on top of the scaffolding, to get to the roof top.
- Take out Derrick or Francis when ready.
- Get off the roof and evacuate the area.
- The cops are onto you. Lose your wanted level (If the player takes too long to escape).
Deaths
Choosing to kill Derrick
- Derrick McReary - Killed by Niko Bellic on Francis McReary's orders.
Choosing to kill Francis
- Francis McReary - Killed by Niko Bellic on Derrick McReary's orders.
Walkthrough
Niko drives to the park in Lancet. After Derrick's call, Niko will contact Francis again, who gives him instructions on where to take point. Niko must climb the scaffolding and get to the roof via the window cleaning elevator. He must then run up to the yellow marker, where he will get his sniper rifle ready to kill either Francis or Derrick.
If the player is going to kill Derrick, they can make sure to call Francis while on the roof, who offers to increase the hit payment from $10,000 to $20,000. If Derrick is shot, a cutscene will show Francis telling everyone to clear the area and fakes sadness over his brother who had just been killed. If Francis is shot, there will be no cutscene and Derrick will simply leave the area.
After killing the target, Niko immediately leaves the area to finish the mission and avoid a wanted level, then leaves the area by vehicle or simply walking away.
Video Walkthrough
Reward
Killing Derrick McReary
- $10,000 ($20,000 if the player calls Francis while on the rooftop to bump up the hit payment).
- Niko will blackmail Francis, telling him that he will no longer work for him and intends to do the same thing Derrick had planned, giving him the ability to remove wanted level up to 3 stars (until completion of the story).
Killing Francis McReary
- Increased friendship with Packie.
- Killing Francis has no reward(s). The next mission, Undertaker, can be easier since the drive to the graveyard is closer.

- In the Grand Theft Auto V mission The Paleto Score, if Packie is chosen as a gunman, he will recall the events of Three Leaf Clover. Whilst doing so, he mentions Derrick, after which he says "God rest his soul". It implies that killing Derrick is either the canon choice or he has died after the events of GTA IV and before the events of GTA V.
