Fans of Sookie and Eric’s maker Charlaine Harris will be familiar with her 4 book Grave Series, featuring heroine Harper Connelly and her step-brother Tolliver. Rumors of Harper coming to our television screens have been circulating on and off for a while now, and today it will be officially confirmed that Syfy have picked up the rights to develop these books under the title “Grave Sight”. Kam Miller (Law & Order, SVU) is to write a pilot, which could hopefully be developed into a drama series.
When she was 15, Harper Connelly was struck by a bolt of lightening. She recovered mostly……she has a strange spiderweb of red on parts of her body, and her right leg has episodes of weakness. Sometimes her right hand shakes. She has headaches. And she can find dead people”
We really love Harper as a character, and wish that there had been more than 4 books in this series, so fingers crossed this works out and we get to see another of Charlaine’s heroines on our screens.
Any other Harper fans out there? If you don’t know her yet, we highly recommend you check her out. We’ll keep an eye out for further updates on this project.
