Described as a 'riveting read' by Sarah Waters and acclaimed by
crime writers such as Andrew Taylor, The Pursued is a dark,
gripping 1930s psychological thriller by C. S. Forester, the author
of Hornblower. The story begins when Marjorie, a young woman,
arrives home one summer evening and finds her sister, dead, with
her head in the oven. She looks peaceful, as if she is asleep.
Their mother suspects, however, that Dot's death was far from
natural - and that she knows who the killer is. So, slowly and
meticulously, she plots her terrible revenge. C. S. Forester's 1935
thriller The Pursued, lost for decades, rewrote the traditions of
crime fiction to create a dark, twisted portrayal of obsession and
retribution.
