The Deal
A satirical descent into a world where power is a game and algorithms rule all
- Political Fiction
- Science Fiction
In a quiet Georgetown townhouse, a secret deal is struck that will change the course of history. The plan was simple: a controlled election where the outcome was predetermined. But when the puppet breaks his strings and authentic momentum takes hold, the world's most powerful players find themselves in a desperate scramble for control. From the high-stakes corridors of Sheer Audacity, Palm Beach to private island summits, Holly Clanton, Ronald Tramp, and Eliot Mask navigate a surreal new reality. Here, international diplomacy is decided by high-stakes games of Risk, and governance is slowly surrendered to an autonomous AI system designed for total optimization. As the algorithm takes over, the human architects realize too late that they have engineered their own irrelevance. In this biting political satire, Hillary Seeger explores a future where stability is perfect, efficiency is absolute, and human agency is a relic of the past. The Deal is a chillingly funny look at the end of politics and the dawn of the algorithmic age.
