Series Synopsis Haven

SERIES SYNOPSIS
Haven, Maine appears to be just another lively, New England seaside town, complete with quaint shops, scenic beaches and a busy harbor.

But when FBI Agent Audrey Parker (Emily Rose) arrives on a routine case, she encounters the mysterious underside of Haven. Her investigation leads her to discover that certain people in Haven are supernatural in a way that can’t be controlled – and they often hide in plain sight. Audrey is not just a relentless, highly trained investigator – she’s charming and clever, gifted with unique intuition. In the series, she discovers that she alone is uniquely qualified to save these people, and she chooses to stay in Haven – not only to unravel the mysteries surrounding these troubled people, but to dig deeper into the unsettling truths about her own history and her ties to this extraordinary place.

As she resolves the problems of others, Audrey finds allies in Haven to help her along the way. There’s Nathan Wuornos (Lucas Bryant), a wry local detective who becomes Audrey’s partner on the police force – and who is himself one of the people suffering a supernatural affliction. Nathan is numb to all sensation, everything from pain to simple human touch – or so he would lead Audrey to believe. Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour) is Nathan’s nemesis, a rogue who makes a living doing secretive work on both sides of the law. And standing in the background are more of the Haven locals who will aid or impair Audrey’s journey. People like Vince and Dave Teagues, the brothers who own the town newspaper, and Police Chief Wuornos, Nathan’s father who – like many in Haven – is skilled at keeping the town’s secrets.

“Haven,” based on the Stephen King novella ‘The Colorado Kid,” is the story of Audrey’s entry into this seemingly normal town. Across the seasons, Audrey’s quest to understand herself and the great mysteries of Haven will drive her ever deeper down the rabbit hole.

CHARACTER BIOGRAPHIES

Right: AUDREY PARKER –Emily Rose (Jericho, Brothers and Sisters)
A shrewd and confident FBI agent with a lost past, Emily arrives in the small town of Haven, Maine to solve the murder of a local ex-con. Before long, her natural curiosity lands her in the epicenter of activity in this curious enclave, which turns out to be a longtime refuge for people that are afflicted with a remarkable range of supernatural abilities.
As the townspeople’s dormant abilities begin to express themselves, Audrey helps keep these forces at bay while discovering the many secrets of Haven – including one surrounding her own surprising past in this extraordinary place.

Centre: NATHAN WUORNOS – Lucas Bryant (Playing House)
Nathan Wuornos is the wry local cop in Haven, who soon becomes Audrey’s partner. Bristling under the thumb of his father, the Chief of Police, Nathan has a quiet, controlled demeanor that often clashes with Audrey’s feisty one: a dichotomy that also makes them perfect complements. As events in the town begin to unfold at a surprising pace, Nathan’s usual controlled sense of calm is put to the test.

Left: DUKE CROCKER – Eric Balfour (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre)
Among the citizens of Haven is Duke Crocker, a charming yet mysterious jack-of-all-trades. Though Duke outwardly appears to be a free spirit who lives an unobtrusive life on his boat, it becomes apparent that his mellow demeanor may conceal a much darker agenda.
