Still Life

"Choose to believe as much or as little of what you're about to read as you wish, but it's my story of how the cold embrace of death, finally taught me how to live."

Lila Fort is a lost cause. At seventeen years old, she spends her days bullying her classmates, fighting in the street, and stealing. That all changes however when one evening she's hit by a car, sending her into an instant coma where she's visited by the mysterious Albert, who claims to be her guardian angel, and who presents her with an offer: live in the body of another teenage girl who was accidentally killed at the exact same time, for two months, completing the eight set trails that will present themselves to her during that time to prove herself worthy of a second chance at life, and at the end of the sixty two days she will wake up as herself again.

Suddenly finding herself in a different body, surrounded by a functional family and real friends for the first time in her life, Lila slowly starts to realise just how much her previous actions have effected those around her, and finds her new, temporary life, changing her in ways she never could have imagined...
