The Black Lighthouse Manuscript - A Symbolic Sci-Fi Mystery for Advanced English Learners (B2–C1 Level)

What if the mirrors didn't reflect your face—but your forgotten memories? The Black Lighthouse Manuscript ("Le Manuscrit du Phare Noir") is a symbolic and deeply atmospheric sci-fi mystery written entirely in English for advanced learners (B2–C1). With 20 chapters and over 20,000 words, this story takes readers on a haunting journey through time, memory, and perception. When Émile discovers an old manuscript hidden in a coastal town library, he unknowingly activates the first of eight "mirrors"—thresholds that don't just show the past but connect places, people, and forgotten knowledge.
