Trotman K: Dark, Dirty, Dangerous

Dark, Dirty, Dangerous

Building the Vibrant Future of Manufacturing

SHORTLISTED FOR THE SCOTLAND'S NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR DEBUT FICTION FINALIST FOR THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR FIRST FICTION 'Ambitious, wildly original ... it will trick and tease you to the bitter end.' THE TIMES 'Singular and potent ... Unsettling and sharply funny with carefully built-up layers of dis-ease in a comic deadpan.' GUARDIAN 'A masterclass in misdirection.' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Unsettling, puckish, and brilliantly written, this novel is an absolute one-off.' CLAIRE FULLER, Women's Prize shortlisted author of Unsettled Ground 'Magical, perplexing, and funny in a wholly original way.' RACHEL YODER, author of Nightbitch 'A remarkable, preternatural study of a family reckoning with its own history.' THE TELEGRAPH 'An acid trip of a novel. Weird, sinister and darkly funny.' AMY TWIGG, author of Spoilt Creatures 'An unforgettable narrative voice.' FRANCINE TOON, bestselling author of Pine As always with these things, it started with a birthday party. On a bright summer day in 1989 New England, Abi, three years old, vanishes from her aunt's secluded home. Upstairs, her young cousins are looking out of the window. Something is unfolding in the distance at the edge of the forest - something sinister that is watching them back. The adults don't seem to notice that the youngest of the group has disappeared. Too busy bickering over politics and reminiscing about the family's domineering late matriarch, Beezy, they leave the children with no choice but to get Abi back themselves. As the cousins embark on a quest through their grandmother's sprawling estate, buried family secrets come to light and long-awaited plans are set in motion. Will they lose themselves while trying to find her? Idle Grounds is a chilling, evocative and darkly comic debut about childhood, legacy, and the burdens and privileges we carry with us.

Idle Grounds

Revealing the people behind the Rothschild name, The Rothschilds explores the lives and legacy of one of the best-known and most impactful families in modern history. The Rothschild name has long been synonymous with wealth and privilege, but as Jews the family has also been dogged by prejudice and hatred. Antisemitism followed them from their earliest beginnings in the oppressive Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt, where Jews were not allowed out after nightfall, to the lofty summits of high finance, art, and culture. However, behind the myths, the glamor, and the conspiracy theories are a group of relatives whose individualism, personalities and occasional eccentricities have been obscured by their shared surname. <ul> <li>In The Rothschilds, Harry Freedman delves into their lives on a historical tour, marked by an unfailing attention to the influence of individual family members on world events.</li> <li>We travel from the genesis of the Rothschild international banking empire to the impact of individual Rothschilds in multiple fields over the past 250 years.</li> <li>Spanning war, politics and the industrial revolution, art, architecture and interior design, zoology, smuggling, and counter-terrorism and the ongoing struggle against entrenched anti-Jewish bigotry in different historical eras and places.</li></ul> The Rothschilds reveals a truly new story of a very old family, making a great contribution both to history and our understanding of a dynasty that has shaped our world. &nbsp;

Some Day This Will Be A Funny Story

The Secret World of Wealth

RICH DAD, SPIRITUAL DAD!

You followed the rules.
You got the job.
You bought the house.

So why does it feel like you're losing?

For decades, men have been told that stability comes from obedience:

study hard, work late, take on debt, and trust that time will reward you.

But when you step back and look at the math - at the mortgages, the interest, the years traded away - the story doesn't hold.

The Old Money Blueprint is not a finance book in the modern sense.

It doesn't offer hacks, shortcuts, or motivational slogans. It is a long-form argument about how families quietly lose wealth over generations - and how a small number manage to build structures that endure.

Written for fathers and men who feel increasingly alienated by the standard path, this book examines the hidden assumptions behind "normal" life: education, careers, debt, consumption, and the unspoken expectations that shape them.

This book is not about becoming rich quickly.

It is about thinking in decades instead of quarters.

About building systems instead of chasing outcomes.

About accepting short-term difficulty in exchange for long-term freedom.

Some readers will find these ideas clarifying.
Most will find them uncomfortable.

Both are necessary for growth.

The Old Money Blueprint is meant to be read slowly, returned to, and lived with.

For those who recognize themselves in its pages, it becomes less a book about money - and more a blueprint for what kind of ancestor they intend to be.

Rewrite the Script. Build a Dynasty

The Old Money Blueprint

This is not a get-rich-quick book.
Brick by Brick is for parents, first-generation professionals, and families who are determined to change their financial bloodline permanently.
Written by a father to his children, this book is both a practical financial roadmap and a deeply personal legacy letter about discipline, ownership, and building wealth that lasts beyond one lifetime.
What makes this book different
Unlike traditional personal finance books that focus only on tactics, Brick by Brick blends mindset and mechanics. It speaks directly to families who were never given a financial roadmap and shows how to build one intentional decision at a time.
Inside Brick by Brick, you'll learn how to:Build and protect credit with intention
Create disciplined saving habits that compound over time
Invest with strategy instead of emotion
Use real estate as a long-term wealth-building tool
Teach your children financial literacy through example, not lectures
Break generational cycles of debt, stress, and financial silence


These aren't theories. They are principles built to be reread and applied across different seasons of life.
A book with both instruction and heart
Through storytelling, clear financial guidance, and heartfelt letters written to his children and future grandchildren, the author shows that wealth is not just about money. It's about freedom, preparation, and stewardship.
This book doesn't promise shortcuts. It offers something better: a blueprint for sustainable, generational progress.

A Father's Guide to Building Generational Wealth

Brick by Brick

A sweeping, multi-generational novel that traces the fractured bonds between three Iraqi-British sisters In the autumn of 2014, as the Islamic State declares the establishment of a Caliphate in Iraq and Syria, three estranged Iraqi-British sisters are drawn back into each other's orbits through the discovery of their late father's lost paintings. As Mediha, Zainab, and Ishtar each lay claim to his legacy-an inheritance laced with exile, betrayal, and a homeland they no longer recognize-Zainab's son Nizar, a traumatized war correspondent, returns to the family fold. Spanning continents and decades, Floodlines charts the emotional and political aftershocks of the US-led invasion of Iraq. Inspired by Haddad's family history and the artistic legacy of his great uncle Jewad Selim-a key protagonist of Iraqi Modernism-Floodlines is a contemporary Iraqi epic, and explores exile, queerness, and the disruptive legacies of (neo)colonialism in haunting, visceral prose.
