Introduction : Bucharest, Romania, 1984 -- Techirghiol, Romania, 1961 -- I vividly remember the first time I was left alone and in charge of the house -- Summer's end was marked by three events that I looked forward to each year -- On May 12 of my senior year of high school, I passed the baccalaureate exam -- "Explain to me, please, what persona non grata means" -- One Saturday I answered the phone, and to my surprise, it was Radu -- By the time my midterm exams were over, I was a wreck and ready for spring break -- While being a lawyer under the Communist regime did make me part of the "privileged" class, I really didn't consider myself privileged at all -- "I don't want to be an attorney anymore," I announced, walking into my office -- After six months of studying the Bible, I was baptized -- As elated as I was to see Martin and Liviu go free, deep down I knew they were only two of hundreds, possibly thousands -- With each case, the Securitate's scare tactics became more intense -- To say that it had been an exhausting week would be a gross understatement -- Early the next morning, I fixed my coffee, read my Bible, and waited for the alarm to wake up the girls -- President Ceausescu's government worked in stealth mode -- Epilogue : Dallas, Texas, 2010 -- A final note from the author -- Afterword : A final note from my assassin -- Q & A : An interview with Virginia Prodan -- About the author -- Discussion questions. |

| Summary, etc |
"I should be dead. Buried in an unmarked grave in Romania. Obviously, I am not. Apparently, God had other plans." At just under five feet tall, Virginia Prodan was no match for the towering 6'10" 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 Ceauscescu's vicious 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 then 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 managed not only to elude her enemies time and again, but helped expose the appalling secret that would ultimately lead to the demise of Ceauscescu's evil empire is one of the most extraordinary stories ever told. A must-read for all generations, Saving My Assassin is the unforgettable account of one woman's search for truth, her defiance in the face of sheer evil, and a surprise encounter that proves without a shadow of a doubt that nothing is impossible with God. - Publisher. |

| Summary, etc |
As a testament to her unwavering faith in a God who delivers, Prodan denounced Nicolae Ceauşescu and dared to defend Christians in communist Romania while fearlessly declaring Christ-- even to the assassin who was ordered to kill her. She was kidnapped, tortured, and came within seconds of being executed-- but managed to defeat her enemies and expose the appalling secrets that would lead to the demise of Ceauşescu's evil empire. |
