Life was largely uneventful for Marjorie Grainger until she came home one night to find her sister dressed up, lying lifelessly on the kitchen floor with her head in the oven. But their mother suspects this is not a simple case of suicide. In fact, she's sure she knows exactly who the killer, is, and starts to slowly and meticulously plot 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.
