John Wells was presented to the literary world by Alex Berenson in April 2006 via his novel "The Faithful Spy". He was introduced as a CIA agent at the final point of working within an al qaeda band in Pakistan for two years. He is described as the first American to ever successfully infiltrate an al qaeda group. After that most unusual beginning John has taken part in several very well written and researched books; mainly involving Islamic terrorists as protagonists. The Night Ranger is the first Well's book set on the African continent. A group of American volunteers, two young men and two women are working with a charity group in Kenya involved in helping Somali refugees in camps there. They decide that a short vacation is needed to get away from the stress of trying to keep up with the overwhelming needs of the refugees. While traveling to the vacation area they are taken prisoner by Somali bandits whose intentions seem to be to ransom them and subsequently release them.
When their captivity drags on John Well's estranged son calls him after years of having no contact to ask him to intervene and try to free the four. One of the girls is his son's girlfriend's sister. John agrees to try and rescue the captives in order to possibly reestablish a relationship with the boy, and travels to Kenya to try and free them. Like the other Well's books the action is fast and keeps the reader glued to the pages. John, while no longer a member of the CIA coordinates his efforts with his ex supervisor since the US becomes officially interested in rescuing the volunteers, up to and including possibly sending in an invading force.
