Adversity Knocks

When offered a second chance at life, a disdainful woman makes the ultimate decision to swap her hideous corpse for the body of another she used to make fun of.

After attending her bachelorette party, Joleyne Slider woke up to find herself in Purgatory after she was knocked out from a car accident. She hit the victim, Elizabeth MacQuoid, who unknowingly walked right in front of Joleyne's vehicle after suffering an aneurysm. Leaving loved ones on their own, they both had guilt hanging over their heads.

That is until a clever man known as the Grim Reaper gives one of the women another chance to return to Earth, given that they have to switch bodies.

Reason: They were dealing with the devil in disguise and it would be a lesson learned for one of the ladies, that is if she's willing to make the sacrifice. And if that woman was able to convince her former flame that she was his long lost love, the Grim Reaper promised to make her life fulfilling.

One knock on the door changes everything!
