Hillary Seeger

2 booksMysteryHumorPolitical Satire

Hillary Seeger is a New Hampshire author, Air Force veteran, and lifelong observer of politics, bureaucracy, and the strange ways ordinary people navigate both. After careers spanning aerospace manufacturing, business operations, and public service, she turned to fiction, where satire proved to be the most honest way to write about modern life. Drawing on her love of New England, small-town characters, and deadpan humor, Seeger writes stories in which the absurd is treated with complete sincerity. Her work blends political satire, conspiracy fiction, and offbeat comedy into tales where invisible towns, eccentric bureaucrats, determined reporters, stubborn fishermen, and the occasional overconfident dentist coexist surprisingly well. She lives in New Hampshire with her husband and believes every great story starts with one simple question: What if everyone accepted the impossible as perfectly normal?

The Cahoots Conspiracy

A razor-sharp political satire of hidden islands, illicit mines, and perpetual Nixon votes

Mystery
Humor
Political Satire

New Hampshire Attorney General Arthur Pendleton is running for governor, but his polling data has an impossible leak: a town called Cahoots is predicting a landslide for his rival, Blaine Worthington. The catch? Cahoots doesn't exist on any official map. Following a trail of bizarre tide charts behind a nuclear power plant, Arthur boards a rusted ferry and enters a forgotten island governed by 18th-century maritime laws, tide-scheduled traffic lights, and an unwavering tradition of giving Richard Nixon eight percent of every vote. But Arthur quickly uncovers more than eccentric charm. His own grandfather helped erase Cahoots in 1974, and Worthington Mining Corporation is now exploiting that legal void to drill beneath the unmapped soil. Teaming up with sharp-tongued local reporter Tabs Miller, Arthur navigates sabotaged brakes, pedantic town moderators, and secret underground tunnels. To win the governorship and save the town, he must decide whether the law's greatest duty is to expose the truth—or keep the island safely off the map forever.

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.
