Blacktree Press · Est. 2026
Detective fiction. Cybercrime thrillers. Maker projects.
Every book works on at least two levels — or it doesn't ship.
What we publish
Victorian-era locked rooms, impossible crimes, and the quiet logic behind them. Inspector Rourke and Sergeant Miles navigate fog-shrouded moors, wartime Vienna, and Yorkshire wolds — each case more morally complex than the last.
Hacker stories that teach real security concepts through narrative. No handwaving, no magic — only authentic terminal sessions, social engineering, and the moral weight of knowing too much about how broken things really are.
Project guides written by an engineer who builds the hardware before writing the book. From engine architecture to playable hardware — practical, precise, and designed for makers who want to understand every layer of what they're building.

Three Detective Stories
Three interlocking mysteries across Victorian Devonshire, wartime Vienna, and the Yorkshire Wolds. A locked conservatory, a dead spy's perfect performance, a murder two years old — each case more morally complex than the last.

Eren Dogan
Author · Engineer · Publisher
Eren Dogan is an electrical and electronics engineer and graduate researcher whose working life is spent on IoT systems, PCB design, robotics, and embedded hardware — and whose writing life is spent on the same problems, approached from a different angle.
He grew up reading Agatha Christie and Arthur Conan Doyle, fascinated by locked rooms and the quiet logic behind impossible crimes. The Inspector Rourke stories are the product of that lifelong fascination. The Digital Underground series began as an experiment: could a story teach real security concepts without becoming a textbook? The answer, it turned out, was yes — if you trust the narrative to carry the weight.
Every book published under Blacktree Press is written to work on at least two levels simultaneously. The fiction has to function as fiction first. The technical material has to be accurate enough to matter. If either condition fails, the book doesn't ship.
