Jacey Bedford's Journal

Audiobook narrated by Nigel Planer

When Ian, a graphic novel author, inherits a country cottage from his aunt, who’s presumed dead after disappearing ten years ago. He’s slightly disconcerted to find that the overgrown garden looks different depending on which window he looks out of, or whether he walks around the house and visits it in person. And the kitchen door has been unaccountably blocked up. It turns out that the cottage is situated on a number of intersecting ley lines and that there are a number of alternate realities. Saffy, an attractive local esoteric shop keeper, confirms that he’s not actually going bonkers, and he sets out to explore the alternatives. Opening up new doors increases the possibilities and the puzzlement. Unfortunately he’s already lost his literary agent into the wrong reality, and then he’s tasked with finding a doppleganger pope. The reading is good and the story quirky.
