Eliza turned and looked down at Sophie, who was lying on the ground, her face frozen in shock, eyes wide with disbelief. Slowly, Eliza said. "I believe it was Gilbert Stuart."

The moment Sophie heard the name, she let out a muffled, furious scream. But her mouth had been tightly gagged by Eliza, so the words never made it out.

If Sophie could speak, she would have demanded answers. "How do you know him? How do you even know what he looks like? How?"
