The Healers Battle Against Evil in This Young Adult Thriller

Author Donna Labermeier's debut novel introduces seven gifted teens who are destined to save the world through their supernatural gifts

CINCINNATI, Aug. 2, 2011 — Koemi can rescue people from their deepest despair. Harata can intuit a person's innermost thoughts. Eleanor can make sick people well. None of them knows each other, but these three young people share an astounding destiny: they were born to heal the world. A new young adult fantasy series will rivet readers everywhere with the release of author Donna Labermeier's book, The Healers.

Under the tutelage of their spiritual guide, an old master named Agostino, the three teenagers embark on separate missions around the globe to vanquish the planet's darkest forces. Koemi saves people from self-destruction. Harata thwarts would-be terrorists. Eleanor instructs others on how to grow their natural psychic abilities. Individually, they are powerful agents of good. Melded together as a group, who knows what unimaginable energy might be unleashed? The amazing potential of the Healers is the one thing that terrifies the villainous Venceslao, an evil entity that feeds on despair, who is on a mission to capture the three healers and others like them, and then harness their talents for his own malevolent purposes. It will be up to Koemi, Harata and Eleanor to bring the healers of the world together and find a way to stop this deadly adversary in time to fight for their own freedom and to save all of humankind from utter annihilation.
