Hattie Grünewald An agent with The Blair Partnership (see other agents at this agency). About I represent commercial and upmarket fiction, including book club fiction, crime and thriller, historical and contemporary fiction, and some non-fiction in the areas of lifestyle and personal development. Country of Publication United Kingdom Professional Associations Member of AAA AI Policy Human-created work only; no AI use allowed Collapse section Fiction Open I am currently open to commercial and upmarket fiction submissions with a strong pitch, believable characters and an engaging voice. In contemporary fiction, I am looking for zeitgeisty novels. These may tackle complex issues or feature captivating and multi-layered family dramas, high concept love stories and other conversation-starting topics with a “you need to read this” quality.In historical fiction, I’m looking for unusual, escapist settings or characters that are often overlooked by history – from atmospheric gothic fiction through to sweeping historical romance.In crime and thriller, I’m looking for ambitious, immaculately-plotted detective fiction, tense, page-turning psychological thrillers and humorous yet clever cosy crime. Regional crime stories are always high on my wish list, as well as a strong sense of character and novels that use the crime genre to explore broader social issues. My favourite authors are Tana French, Elizabeth Gilbert, Liane Moriarty and Margaret Atwood. I am always looking for books from marginalised authors. I am interested in LGBTQ+ stories and books that aren’t afraid to call themselves feminist. I am always keen to see books about mental health, as well as books by disabled or chronically ill authors.Audience:Open to a broad Audience, including: Adults.Genres: General Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Historical, Women's Fiction Mystery/Crime Open to all/most Subgenres Suspense/Thriller Open to all/most SubgenresLengths: NovelStyles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Literary, Mainstream.Topics: Open to all/most Topics including...

Never pay an agent an up-front fee. That is not how literary agent representation works. Agents earn a commission only after they've landed a publishing deal for you. Also, agents scarcely ever contact writers. If an agent that you haven't queried contacts you about representation, be suspicious. Look up the agent and check if the email address is correct for that agent/agency.
