Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden


Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden



New Eden, 1695.

Antea Duarte and Red mac Raith are lovers and Banishers, ghost-hunters who have vowed to protect the living from lingering ghosts and specters. Following a disastrous last mission, Antea is fatally wounded, becoming one of the very spirits she loathes. In the haunted wilds of North America, the couple desperately searches for a way to liberate Antea from her new plight while trying to lift an ominous curse from New Eden.



Will you sacrifice the living to bring Antea back, or will you keep your Banisher’s oath?

“Life to the living, Death to the dead.”

BOUND BY LOVE

When Red met Antea, she was traveling through Europe to study and discover the roots of the Banishers’ art. She fell in love with a good man crumbling beneath guilt. She banished his ghosts, setting him free to recover himself. He fell for her as she taught him how to improve his understanding and perception of ghosts and specters. Having been haunted himself, he forswore killing the living and set out to become a Banisher.

RUAIDRIGH “RED” MAC RAITH

Red became a Banisher due to his guilty conscience. He was once a mercenary, haunted by the ghosts of those he had murdered. It was Antea’s saving grace that enabled him to find the path to redemption and eventually their love blossomed. When Antea tragically passes away, Red is faced with a heartbreaking dilemma between his beloved and his vows as a Banisher.

Antea Duarte

A renowned and experienced Banisher, Antea’s was brought up to rely on herself, which was strongly reinforced through her own experiences with prejudice. She is independent and resilient, so when she is killed and returns as a spirit – the very thing she hates most – she must rely on Red. Torn between love and death, she makes him swear an oath to help her find a way out of this excruciating situation.
