A Confederate Soldier, a Union President, and a Resemblance That Could Change History

Debut Novel “Lincoln’s Double” Unveils an Unforgettable Civil War Tale

NEW YORK, NY, April 16, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ — In a powerful work of historical fiction that blurs the lines between enemy and ally, author Perry Fox announces the release of his debut novel, Lincoln’s Double: Friend or Foe. Inspired by the remarkable true story of the author’s grandfather, this gripping narrative explores a “what if” scenario that places a simple Florida farmer at the heart of one of America’s most turbulent eras.

When tall, soft-spoken Confederate soldier Frank Fox is chosen for a desperate mission to kidnap Abraham Lincoln, he believes he is serving his country. Disguised as the president himself, the plan is for Frank to stand in long enough for the South to negotiate peace. But when the scheme collapses, Frank finds himself captured and face-to-face with the man he was meant to impersonate. Instead of the tyrant he expected, Frank discovers a weary leader wrestling with the cost of a divided nation. Moved by conviction, Lincoln offers Frank an impossible choice: execution, or a new, dangerous role secretly standing in for the president at public events.

What follows is an unlikely partnership that reshapes Frank’s loyalties, his beliefs, and his faith, leading him toward a deadly conspiracy with tragic consequences.

Lincoln’s Double is more than a war story; it is a tale of redemption, the power of human connection, and one man’s journey through a war that tested the soul of a nation.
