Literary Agent Needed for Manuscript Publication

I am a writer and freelancer seeking an experienced literary agent to help me secure a publishing deal for my completed manuscript. While I have a decade of experience in article writing and freelance journalism, I lack the expertise to navigate the tangled web of book publishing. I have an excellent, gripping, ready-to-pitch completed manuscript, the author's work only with no AI assistance (3 years in the writing). The completed work (81,000 words) is an autobiographical work of fiction inspired by true events. The plot follows a career rescue diver as the cumulative weight of trauma, adrenaline, and loss begins to erode his mental health, his marriage, and his sense of self. Set in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, the book brings readers inside a little-known world of marine emergency response, where every call has the potential to save a life—or recover what’s left of one. As the protagonist struggles to reconcile the demands of the job with the growing toll it takes on his life above water, he is forced to confront a difficult question: how do you walk away from a role that defines you, when staying may destroy you? Blending immersive rescue scenes with a candid exploration of psychological strain, this novel will appeal to readers of adventure tales, memoirs, and narrative nonfiction. This novel has been edited and is ready for query. The ideal candidate should have a proven track record of successfully representing authors and assisting in negotiating book deals. You will provide insights into the publishing process, pitch my work to publishers, and assist with contract negotiations. If you have a passion for literature and a network of industry contacts, I would love to hear from you. The listed price of 400.00 is a starting point for discussions around securing a book deal, and I look forward to chatting with you regarding establishing a contract.
