A miracle made for the feed. A body made into infrastructure. An audience that learns it was never only watching.
When a dying man moves during a hospice livestream, disgraced producer Mara Ellis recognizes the truth before anyone else: the miracle rises and falls with audience attention.
Soon, a secretive organization known as the Network turns that discovery into an industry. Miracles are scheduled. Suffering is optimized. Viewers become operators, their engagement shaping pain, movement, speech, even survival. The sick are rebranded as saints, ranked, broadcast, and pushed toward collapse for a public that cannot look away.
As Mara helps build the machine, she begins to understand what it is really doing. This is not healing. It is control dressed as devotion, monetized at scale. And once the audience realizes it can command the body on screen, the line between worship and domination disappears.
Feast of the Broadcast Saints is a dark literary speculative thriller about livestreamed miracles, platform capitalism, bodily autonomy, and the price of being watched.
Perfect for readers of dystopian fiction, literary speculative fiction, techno-thrillers, and stories in the vein of Black Mirror and Severance.
