Killed to Order in China

Killed to Order in China is a deeply researched and unsettling investigation into one of the most disturbing human rights allegations of the modern era: the systematic harvesting of organs from prisoners of conscience.

Drawing on decades of investigative reporting, tribunal findings, expert testimony, medical ethics analysis, and international legal scrutiny, this book examines how China built one of the world’s largest transplant industries amid persistent questions about consent, transparency, and accountability. From the early days of organ transplantation to the persecution of targeted groups, from unexplained transplant numbers to the role of technology, AI, and global transplant tourism, the book traces a pattern that challenges official narratives and demands serious attention.

Rather than relying on sensationalism, Killed to Order in China follows evidence. It explores how international institutions, governments, medical professionals, advocacy groups, and the media have responded, and where they have fallen short. It places forced organ harvesting within the broader framework of crimes against humanity, global medical ethics, and international law, asking why accountability has been so elusive despite credible and mounting concern.

This book is not an attack on a people or a culture. It is an examination of systems of power, secrecy, and exploitation, and of how modern institutions can be weaponized when ethical safeguards collapse. It also looks forward, offering a clear-eyed discussion of what the world can do to strengthen transplant ethics, protect vulnerable populations, and prevent future abuses.

Unflinching, carefully documented, and morally urgent, Killed to Order in China challenges readers to confront a truth many would prefer to avoid, and to consider what responsibility looks like when evidence is credible, access is denied, and silence becomes complicity.
