About this listen

"I should be dead. Buried in an unmarked grave in Romania. Obviously, I am not. God had other plans."

At just under five feet tall, Virginia Prodan was no match for the towering six-foot-ten-inch, gun-wielding assassin the Romanian government sent to her office to take her life. It was not the first time her life had been threatened - nor would it be the last.

As a young attorney under Nicolae Ceausescu's brutal communist regime, Virginia had spent her entire life searching for the truth. When she finally found it in the pages of the most forbidden book in all of Romania, Virginia accepted the divine call to defend fellow followers of Christ against unjust persecution in an otherwise ungodly land.

For this act of treason, she was kidnapped, beaten, tortured, placed under house arrest, and came within seconds of being executed under the orders of Ceausescu himself. How Virginia not only managed to elude her enemies time and again but also helped expose the appalling secret that would ultimately lead to the demise of Ceausescu's evil empire is one of the most extraordinary stories ever told.

A must-listen for all generations, Saving My Assassin is the unforgettable account of one woman's search for truth, her defiance in the face of evil, and a surprise encounter that proves without a shadow of a doubt that nothing is impossible with God.

Outstanding!! A must-read.

So many memorable moments to mention, but at the risk of writing a spoiler-filled review I will simply say this: if you want to be amazed, inspired, challenged and on the edge of your seat, read it!

Awesome

A human rights advocate is vilified by her corrupt country and marked for death. this is her remarkable life story.

courage, faith, love.

no bad language/ sex references. suitable for teens.

Just one loose end: we did not find out the truth about who her biological parents were.

Inspiring and Encouraging True Story!!!

This is an amazing true story. I was inspired by the faith that Virginia had in God in the midst of very difficult circumstances, in Communist Romania. It is also incredible how God used and worked through Virginia to defend churches, and lead other people to faith in Christ (including one Assassin 😉). I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in Christianity, or Romanian history, or just wants to listen to a good true story!!!

Wonderful story of faith and forgiveness

I’ve always lived with freedoms others have never known. I’m challenged by this book to pray for the persecuted and to be prepared to stand for Christ no matter the cost.

Fascinating story

Really interesting story- all the more so because it is true. Well told and well read. There were some loose ends I would have liked tied up - ok it’s a true story so in real life the loose ends don’t always resolve, but I would like to have heard whatever happened with Aunt Cassandra - or least a mention at the end that she never did find out (if that’s the case). But overall this is an inspiring story that is very well worth a listen.
