Crossword Genius

Heckle King and Queen's agent (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

booker

'agent' is the definition.
(booker is a kind of agent)

'heckle king and queen's' is the wordplay.
'heckle' becomes 'boo'.
'king and queen' becomes 'ker' (I've seen this in other clues).
'boo'+'ker'='BOOKER'

(Other definitions for booker that I've seen before include "Literary prize" , "U.K. annual prize for best novel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
