"Do unto others as you would unto yourself."
"Hey! What are you doing? Adriene!"
"I'm taking over your body."
I looked at him with a disgusted face. "WHAT?! No! You sick freak-"
"So says you, a Ringer."
"!" My heart stops beating for a slight second. I move my now shaking hands to my line of slight, and I draw a quick breath of air. "Oh God."
My rand were see through. It wasn't him who had been ringing.
"It was me."
I hear Adriene sneer. "'Bout time, Princess."

Tory has the uncanny ability to switch bodies with people. Unfortunately, not with anyone she wants to, but with people she has come to know as Ringers; people who emit a clear, almost painful, ring because they no longer feel their pupose or tie to this world.
When a person rings, their souls become vulerable to the spirit realm. Tory's job is to return them to this realm so they can reincarnate into someone who has an absolute sense of belonging in the human world. But some spirits don't make it in time, and they fade away.
And for the first stages years of her life, she was the only one who could do so. Until she met Adriene. Tory is excited at first, but it seems Adriene is not the type of person to be excited at meeting another one of his kind.
As Adriene tries to take over her body for reasons other than good ones, Tory must figure out why she feels like she doesn't belong... before it's too late.
