The nightingale sings

the long version

Anne Walsh was born in 1931; a time when women were supposed to be content to marry, raise a family and keep house. But Anne Walsh wasn't like most women. Having grown up during the depression and lived through WWII, Anne entered nursing school determined to make a life of her own. Juggling marriage, a career and eight children, Anne was no stranger to hard work and heartache, but when her oldest daughter was murdered and the police tried to close the case as a suicide, Anne became a crusader for justice as well. This is the compelling, true story of one woman's courage, determination and triumph over tragedy.
