Made in China : a prisoner, an SOS letter, and the hidden cost of America's cheap goods / Amelia Pang.
"After an Oregon mother finds an SOS letter in a box of Halloween decorations, a story unfolds about the man who wrote it: a Chinese political prisoner, sentenced without trial to work grueling hours at a "reeducation" camp--manufacturing the products sold in our own big-box stores."-- Provided by publisher.
