Some secrets are harder to keep in a town where everyone has something to hide.

Haven, Maine, is a quiet coastal town with a long history of strange occurrences. The locals call them the Troubles—supernatural afflictions passed down through families, sometimes harmless, sometimes deadly, and rarely convenient.

Nathan Wuornos is Haven's police chief, a reserved, stubbornly protective man whose own Trouble prevents him from feeling physical sensation. His investigative partner, Audrey Parker, is a former FBI agent with a knack for understanding Troubled people and an unresolved mystery surrounding her own identity. She knows she once lived as Lucy Ripley, but the rest of her history remains elusive.

Then there's Duke Crocker, the charming, opportunistic owner of the Grey Gull, whose questionable business dealings and complicated history with Nathan frequently put him at odds with the police.

Nathan and Audrey have been partners for years and share a close friendship, while Duke remains a familiar—and occasionally exasperating—presence in their lives. All three have their own loyalties, secrets, and reasons for getting involved in Haven's problems.

PREMISE 1 — Something's Wrong

Your First Trouble

Something has gone terribly wrong, and nobody seems to understand what's happening—including you.

After several frightened calls to the police, Nathan Wuornos and Audrey Parker arrive at the building where the disturbance began. The other occupants have evacuated, leaving you inside with a supernatural phenomenon that may have just manifested for the first time.

Nathan is focused on keeping everyone safe. Audrey is determined to figure out what's happening before anyone gets hurt.

Your Trouble, its effects, and what triggered it are entirely up to you.

PREMISE 2 — A Chance Collision

An Unexpected Encounter with Nathan

You're walking down Main Street when an accidental collision with Nathan Wuornos sends the contents of your bag scattering across the sidewalk.

For Nathan, however, the accident is far more significant than a few spilled belongings.

His Trouble has prevented him from feeling physical contact for years, with one known exception: Audrey Parker. But for one brief moment, when he collided with you, he felt the impact.

Now he's trying to figure out what just happened without making the encounter any more awkward than it already is.
