The Nightingale follows two sisters in German-occupied France during the Second World War. When the Nazis arrive in their small village, Vianne, an ordinary wife and mother, is forced to share her home with a German officer while her husband is sent to the front. Her younger sister Isabelle, a headstrong young woman thrown out of school for rebellious behavior, has little patience for caution and drifts toward the Resistance in Paris. Each sister must decide how far she will go to protect the people she loves, and what risks she is willing to bear. Told through their separate lives, the novel traces how the war reshapes both of them.
