Within the pages of A Nightingale in the Storm is the true story of the life of a young student in 1940 during the Nazi occupation of France. Monique Sisich Lefevre Duclos, born in Paris in 1920, was a student at the University of the Sorbonne when the German army invaded France. Being raised in a very patriotic and proud family, she promptly enlisted in one of the first resistance network cells, named ''St. Jacques 06.'' Her role was to transmit information via two-way radio to General de Gaulle and Marshal Montgomery at London headquarters. Betrayed by a double agent, she was arrested and sentenced to death by a German Military Tribunal. While in Nazi death camps, she was tortured, blinded by medical experiments, and survived the infamous death walk. Her journey and return to freedom is vividly told by the author.
