What analyzer are you using at index and search time? Typical problems include: using an analyzer that doesn't understand accented chars (StandardAnalyzer for instance) using a different anlyzer during search and index.
Search the user list for "accent" and you'll find this kind of problem discussed, and if that doesn't help we need to know what analyzers you are using and what behavior you really want. Typically, for instance, *requiring* a user to type the upside-down exclamation point to get a match on this field would be considered incorrect. Also, you'd be helped a lot be getting a copy of Luke and examining your index to see exactly what's been indexed, it'll reveal a lot.
