    The story begins with Sophia and her mother witnessing the hanging of Nathan Hale, a patriot spy. This was very traumatizing to Sophia and, had she not seen it, she would have never done what she did over the course of the next three years. After Sophia and her mother arrive safely at their house, along with Sophia’s father later on, they were forced to let a loyalist soldier live in their house with them. His name was Lieutenant John Andre and despite the fact that he was the enemy, he was very kind and Sophia began to fancy him. Sophia had to work at Mr. Gain’s printing shop to support her family because prices had gone through the roof and Sophia’s father could not go into work because he was injured. Meanwhile, John Andre often “flirted” with Sophia and her crush on him only grew. One day when she and John Andre were out walking, Sophia got a glimpse of her brother.
