The Queen's Marriage by Lady Colin Campbell

Peregrine, an impoverished seventeen-year-old student, from an alternative version of Earth, embarks from Menschens Portal Emporium, on a quest to find the key to a mysterious portal and lock out an army of the most fearsome creatures in literature. In a multi-reality universe, there is no distinction between fact and fiction, and characters first created in novels live independent lives.
In an alternative London of 1880, three former characters from the David Copperfield novel ask Peregrine for asylum in his home world of Earth Minor, a planet-size satellite. On his return, Peregrine finds that a rival has blackmailed his girlfriend, Montana, into signing a legal marriage contract. The convicted clerk, Uriah Heap, unexpectedly comes to the rescue with a terrifying ultimatum.
As the climax intensifies, Peregrine enters a nightmare reality where his whole life is a play, and an actress takes the part of his beloved Montana. She is the exact double of Montana but says that her name is Julia, and she has a life that does not include Peregrine. Who is the real Montana? Does the reality where they met and fell in love still exist, and can he ever return?

Lady Colin Campbell lives with her two sons between a house in central London and Castle Goring in Sussex. She is connected to all the Royal Families of Europe and has been a fixture in Society and gossip columns on both sides of the Atlantic for five decades. She is the author of several celebrated books including London and New York Times bestsellers Diana in Private (1992) and The Real Diana (2004) and has been credited by People magazine as having written the most believable Diana biography. Lynn Barber credits the author as being "the greatest gossip since Pepys" and recommended that her Sunday Times magazine readers buy the author's last book, The Untold Life of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother (2012) on the basis that she has an impeccable track record of revelations and firsts. She is the author of several other books including Guide to Being a Modern Lady (1986); The Royal Marriages (1993); A Life Worth Living (1997); Empress Bianca (2005); Daughter of Narcissus (2009); With Love From Pet Heaven (2010). Following her TV appearance on I'm a Celebrity in 2015 Lady C became the most Googled living individual for that year and was designated a national treasure.
