In 28 ABY,[2] the New Republic senator Ransolm Casterfo arranged to meet a local collector who specialized in Imperial artifacts at a teahouse on the planet Daxam IV. Casterfo was assisting Senator Leia Organa's investigation into the Amaxine warriors and posed as a collector of Imperial artifacts to investigate the Amaxine presence on Daxam IV. This dealer turned out to be Arliz Hadrassian, a former Imperial officer and the Amaxine leader.[1]
The teahouse was a rundown building that was staffed by human waiters since Daxam IV was too poor to afford droids. During their meeting, Hadrassian regaled Casterfo with stories about her work as a TIE fighter pilot and Imperial Security Bureau officer. Casterfo managed to gain her trust by posing as an admirer of the Old Empire. As a result, Hadrassian ascertained that he was a worthy buyer and arranged for him to collect the helmet at her compound in the Western Wastes.[1]

Del Rey (@DelReyStarWars) on Twitter (post): "So excited to have @claudiagray writing a #StarWars novel with us. SW: New Republic: Bloodline coming 2016. Set 6 years before TFA." (screenshot) establishes that the events of Bloodline take place six years before the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of The Force Awakens to 34 ABY, so Bloodline must take place in 28 ABY.
