Contingency

❝Life and death, that's all there should be. But put something in the middle, and all order is lost.❞

Andrea has been a ghost for as long as she could remember; bodiless, empty, floating through a realm between life and death. Her death was a mistake, a mishap in her fate, and when things don't go according to plan, souls like hers remain Suspended, with only a mysterious voice to guide them.

Andrea can't see, or be, but she can feel she is still a person, still somehow breathing.

Most mishaps like her get a second chance, born again, their minds wiped clean and their fate restored. But space is limited, because new souls need to be born as well. The only way she could continue living is if someone was willing to lend their body to her.
That always seemed unlikely. Until, one day, that is just what happens. Andrea wakes up in a body that isn't hers, a body left for dead.

For her.

And it was a boy's body--a boy that used to live in a nightmare.
