It's been a slog but I have now signed on with a new agent. I must have queried close to two hundred agents who handle my genre--crime fiction/thrillers. Responses ranged from none to mostly rejections. Five asked to see the full manuscript, DESERT DOGS. Four asked to see partials.
Got a call, which I missed, on Sunday from Sarah Heller of the Canadian-based Helen Heller Literary Agency. She liked the book and wanted to talk with me. We connected that Monday morning and spoke for close to an hour. Bottom line: she liked the book and I liked her and her agency. I subsequently agreed to signing up with them to represent the book. I've mailed the agreement and she will get back with me to more fully discuss the book.
Exciting.
