Saving My Assassin tells the remarkable story of one Romanian
woman’s role in leading to the demise of Ceauşescu’s Regime
“Virginia Prodan’s book, Saving My Assassin, is a relevant read: the story of a Christian attorney fighting for religious liberty against persecution. We are seeing growing persecution against the Judeo-Christian faith heritage and individual religious freedom here in America. Virginia’s book tells her story—one of being strong and of good courage.”
LIEUTENANT COLONEL ALLEN B. WEST (US ARMY, RETIRED)
President/CEO, National Center for Policy Analysis; Member of 112th US Congress
It was not the first time her life had been threatened—nor would it be her last. Yet this time, at just under five feet tall, Virginia Prodan (@VirginiaProdan) was no match for the towering six-foot-ten, gun-wielding assassin—or was she?
Tyndale House Publishers (www.tyndale.com and @tyndalehouse) is well recognized for publishing gripping, ripped-from-the-headlines fiction books written by New York Times best-selling authors such as Joel C. Rosenberg and Randy Singer. But Virginia Prodan is not a character in a make-believe story. Now an international human rights attorney and a sought-after speaker, Virginia has been exiled from Romania since 1988 and has written a memoir, Saving My Assassin, about her extraordinary life.
Virginia’s story has already garnered praise from a variety of high-profile individuals who have read the book, including Left Behind series author Jerry Jenkins, who called the story “gripping.” Tony Perkins, President, Family Research Council said: “Saving My Assassin is a call to action: to live above fear—and to witness the miraculous. I believe this is the message for this generation of believers: we must rise above the fear of man to see a miraculous move of God.”
As a young attorney under Nicolae Ceauşescu’s brutal communist regime, Virginia had spent her entire life searching for the truth. When she finally found it in the most forbidden book in all of Romania, Virginia accepted the divine call to defend fellow followers of Jesus Christ against unjust persecution in an otherwise ungodly land.
For this act of treason, Virginia was kidnapped, beaten, tortured, and placed under house arrest, and she came within seconds of being executed under the orders of Ceauşescu himself. How Virginia not only managed to defeat her enemies time and time again, but also helped expose the appalling secret that would lead to the demise of Ceauşescu’s empire is an extraordinary story of human courage, one woman’s search for truth, and her defiance in the face of evil.
Virginia’s true story of faith, obedience, and courage can still be witnessed today as she continues to defend the Christian Faith under attack—only now in her adopted country of the United States!
Virginia Prodan is an international human rights attorney, an Allied Attorney with the Alliance Defending Freedom, and a sought-after speaker. Exiled from Romania since 1988, Virginia currently resides in Dallas. She has two daughters, Anca and Andreea, and a son, Emanuel.
Virginia will be available to promote her book, which releases in June 7, 2016.
