Hey there wannabeone. *Waves*
I don't know alot about queries as I am but an amateur seeking to improve my own skills, but I shall help if I can.
Firstly is this a letter to someone?
You start with dear Ms then drop right into a blurb about your book. Try starting with your idea but sell it. Something like 'are you interested in a story concerning....'and you sell your idea. Or perhaps 'in the archeologist world....' and describe your idea. I do know from another post you must first hook the potential client. Then you say why it is a good book, who is the intended target audience and something else that I have forgotten (sorry.)
I will now leave the critiquing for the more experience members.
Hope that helps.
