At just 18, Perry joined the Air Force and served his country with honor for 20 years, including time in Vietnam. His service took him across the world, sparking a lifelong love for travel and discovery.

A Story That Reimagines History
Lincoln’s Double: Friend or Foe is a gripping historical novel that explores a daring and dangerous “what if” of the Civil War era. When Confederate soldier Frank Fox is chosen for a high-stakes mission, to impersonate President Abraham Lincoln, he finds himself caught between loyalty, morality, and destiny.
What begins as a plot to kidnap the President evolves into something far more profound. After being captured, Frank comes face-to-face with the very man he was meant to deceive.
