"Chains of Salvation" is a psychological thriller and, at the same time, a deep investigative work of nonfiction exploring the phenomenon of the anti-cult industry. At the center of the story is the abduction of a young woman in Tokyo. Her parents, convinced that they are "saving" their daughter from a dangerous religion, hand her over to deprogrammers. Behind closed doors, what is called the "liberation of the mind" begins: sleep deprivation, psychological pressure, isolation, and emotional blackmail. Love turns into a tool of coercion. Care becomes a justification for violence. But this personal tragedy is only the beginning. Step by step, the book reveals how a whole system of combating "cults" has taken shape in different countries-a network of lawyers, consultants, religious activists, and media outlets over decades, has constructed the image of the "brainwashed believer" as someone without will or rights. Through the lives of its characters, the author traces the history of the anti-cult movement. Japan occupies a special place in the book-a country where, over decades, thousands of cases of believers being forcibly confined for "deprogramming" have been documented. Parents kidnapped their adult children. Pastors conducted hours-long "salvation sessions." Lawyers turned former members into plaintiffs. After the assassination of Shinzo Abe in 2022, this issue erupted with renewed force. Society demanded accountability. The media offered a simple formula: if the perpetrator accuses a religious organization, then the organization is to blame. But what happens to democracy when guilt is assigned without trial? What happens to freedom of conscience when people begin "protecting" individuals from their own beliefs? "Chains of Salvation" is an exploration of these mechanisms: how moral panic is created, how the image of an enemy is constructed, and how a label deprives a person of the right to be heard. The book draws historical parallels with 20th-century European
