Rob Phayre

Rob delivered his first ransom to Somali pirates about twelve years ago. Since then he has helped resolve nearly 40 hostage incidents both onshore and offshore across Africa. Rob started his career as a military helicopter pilot. After that, he moved to Africa and worked as a security and crisis manager for a number of global companies. From the ice and snow above the arctic circle to the deserts in the Sahara. From the jungles in Africa to the rippling waves of the Indian Ocean, Rob has led projects around the world. His real life experience in so many places with so many fascinating characters doing such daring deeds makes him the ideal author of The Response Files. Rob still lives in Africa and is lucky to do so with his wife and daughters. The Response Files can be read as individual books, but are best enjoyed by reading in the following order; 1. The Ransom Drop 2. Jungle Heist 3. The Insurgency
