Borrowed Name

Borrowed Name is a revenge drama about identity, stolen lives, and what it costs to take your story back.

Born identical and separated as children, twin sisters Nova and Liora grow up in opposite worlds. Nova is raised in poverty, surviving on grit and grades until she earns a coveted scholarship to an elite prep school where she's supposed to be safe. Instead, she becomes the daily target of six golden students-four girls and two boys from powerful families-who use their parents' influence like a shield while they torment her in the shadows. The abuse escalates from cruel "pranks" to physical and psychological torment, until one night their game goes too far. Believing they've killed her, the six try to erase her the way they've erased everything else: bury it and move on.

Across the city, Liora has grown up in the world that was supposed to be Nova's-wealth, status, and two adoptive parents who would have taken both twins if a life-saving treatment hadn't forced a choice. When Liora discovers the truth about her past, she launches a desperate search to find the sister who once gave up everything for her. She arrives at Nova's school just in time to drag her, broken and barely breathing, out of a shallow grave. While Nova lies in a coma, Liora makes a vow: the six who tried to bury her twin will never feel safe again.

Taking Nova's place under her "borrowed" name, Liora walks back into the school as the girl they thought they killed-only this version isn't afraid. With a small circle of unlikely allies, she turns the school's hierarchy inside out, unmasking secrets, weaponizing the truth, and forcing the golden six to face the darkness they hid behind their privilege. But as lies unravel and the line between justice and ruin blurs, Liora has to ask herself: how far can she go wearing her sister's name before she loses her own?
