The Pinchbeck Peer series follows a character who passes as a member of the British aristocracy without being the genuine article. “Pinchbeck” was a cheap alloy used to imitate gold, and the title captures the protagonist’s situation perfectly — a convincing fake moving through real high society.
Spanning eight numbered books from 2018 to 2024, the series explores themes of class, deception, and identity in a society obsessed with birth and breeding. Book 7, subtitled A New Veneer, suggests the protagonist must constantly refresh his disguise as circumstances change.
