The story behind the one-hour drama “Haven” is based on the
novel “The Colorado Kid” from the renowned author Stephen King :
FBI Special Agent Audrey Parker, played by Emily Rose
arrives in the small town of Haven, Maine, on a routine case. She soon finds
herself increasingly involved in the return of "The Troubles", a
plague of supernatural afflictions that have occurred in the town at least
twice before. With an openness to the possibility of the paranormal, she also
finds a more personal link in Haven that may lead her to the mother she has
never known.
Parker (Emily Rose) begins to realize that her arrival in
Haven may have been planned and that her name and even her memories may not be
her own. As the series progresses, she learns more about the mysteries of both
Haven and her true identity.
She and her partner Nathan Wuornos, played by Lucas Bryant
find themselves frequently facing problems caused by both the effects of the
Troubles, as well as town folk who take more drastic measures again.
Eric Balfour is playing Duke Crocker, the port town's
smuggler, who frequently is involved in the investigations. He is eventually
revealed to have the power to stop individual Troubles for good, though at a
very heavy price.
