Overview:

The subtitle to Falling Night is “An unlikely aid worker in a horrific war zone that hides a greater evil” and that tells the reader a lot. Alan Swales is a successful Brit with a girlfriend, lovely home, nice car, good job, you get the picture. For a bit of excitement and adventure, he decides to take a short stint as an aid worker in Africa. Might be some fun experiences to share with his mates. But when he goes back a second time, God is at work in his heart to make a different man of him, one who cares about the people of Africa, one who cannot ignore the rumors of a hidden genocide and one who puts his life on the line! Despite the deep ugliness and cruelty of this world, the author declares that love wins!
