Send a Query to Lori Galvin of Aevitas Creative Management
Thank you so much for querying me.
PLEASE NOTE:
Word count lengths for adult manuscripts should be 65k-110k.
I cannot take it on work that has been previously published.
Here's what I'm looking for:
Crime Novels, Novels of Suspense or Obsession, Mysteries.
Some crime writers I admire: Lisa Jewell, Mark Edwards, Jess Lourey, Will Dean, Catherine Ryan Howard, Kirstin Chen, Alyssa Cole, Jessica Knoll, Peter Swanson, PJ Vernon, Diane Les Becquets, Amina Akhtar, Simone St. James, Alex North, Tim Johnston
Supernatural thrillers or thrillers with a hint of (or some) horror
Book club novels that often provide the reader insight into the human condition. Maybe this is a mystery/thriller crossover into another genre like women's fiction. Client Wanda M. Morris's novels fit into this category. Other examples (these authors are NOT clients) include Celeste Ng, Ashley Audrain, Laura Zigman, Tom Perrotta, Dennis Lehane, Rumaan Alam, Kiley Ried.
Spy or spy-like novels where the protagonist isn’t necessarily a trained spy/investigator. Examples include Holly Watt’s To the Lions, John le Carre’s The Night Manager, and Chris Bohjalian’s The Red Lotus.
NEW: Thrillers with erotic elements like Liane Moriarty and May Cobb.
NEW: Novels with fresh point of view or reimagining of a plot or premise--but made distinctive enough to stand on its own.
