There are two classic books that might interest you:

The Prisoner of Zenda
The crown prince of Ruritania is about to be crowned, but he is kidnapped by the person who is next in line. So an Englishman who looks just like the crown prince is persuaded to go to Ruritania and stand in for the crown prince until he can be rescued. No-one can know he isn't the crown prince (apart from the people who persuaded him to stand in), so he has to fool the royal family, the Ruritanian court etc while all the time, the person who kidnapped the crown prince is trying to expose him,

The Scapegoat
In this one, an Englishman, John, meets a Frenchman by chance, who looks just like him. They start drinking together and chatting and some hours later, John wakes up from a drunken sleep to find the Frenchman has absconded with his (John's) papers. So John decides his only option is to pretend to be the Frenchman (who's left his papers for John to use, so he obviously wants to be impersonated). I can't remember why he can't tell the authorities what happened, but he needs to fool everyone, at least for a while.
