"Les Marguerites Fleuriront Ce Soir" 

Cloistered in an old barn on the farm of Mme. Lea Lebrat, in south central France,   O.S.S. spy Virginia Hall communicates with London on a July morning in 1944.  Edmond Lebrat (cousin of Lea Lebrat), a Maquis leader, operates an improvised, manual generator to supply power to Virgnia'a B-2 spy radio. The code phrase "les marguerites fleuriront ce soir (the daisies will bloom tonight)" alerts Virginia to expect something from London.
