“A Trilogy of Ghosts” is a composite of three books called THE TRUE.

In 2019, world-renowned Romanian theater director Alexandru Darie died, the news shocking the creative world.

Bringing Darie and Romania vividly to life, The True also tells the story of one courageous woman’s cutting through a con artist’s web of lies that mirror global corruption.
