Laurent delmas tome 1 " le secret du vieux manoir abandonné"

Details

In 1981, twenty-year-old Laurent Delmas is desperate to escape the shadow of his legendary war-correspondent father. Armed only with his athletic build, a sharp mind fluent in four languages, and his signature blonde mullet, he arrives in a decaying, fog-shrouded French village looking for the scoop that will launch his journalism career. The locals warn him away from the looming, abandoned manor on the hill, whispering of a dark secret that cursed the previous owners. But Laurent's desperate need for validation blinds him to the danger. When he breaks inside, he discovers a hidden Nazi-era cipher machine and signs of recent, sinister activity. To expose the truth, Laurent must navigate a web of local hostility, ancient conspiracies, and his own reckless obsession with fame. In this isolated village, his multilingual skills become his only weapon, but his refusal to back down might make this scoop his absolute last.
