Pursuit
Gene Hackman, acclaimed actor and author of Payback at Morning Peak, “takes aim at a clear telling a good story” (St. Augustine Record) in this contemporary thriller.GENE HACKMAN brings his richly diverse literary voice to a gripping new thriller that pits a devoted police sergeant against a predator who may cost her everything that matters. “I’ll say this for the last time. Take your hand off the shotgun.” In a tense standoff with a shopping mall shooter, Sergeant Juliette Worth has the suspect about to surrender—then in a few explosive seconds, she takes him down. Usually a by-the-book cop, Julie has too much at stake, raising her daughter on her own, to break protocol—until the mall killer pushes her over the line. Instead of kudos for saving his hostage, the Missouri State Criminal Investigation Unit hands Julie cold case duty. Among the forgotten files, she uncovers a disturbing connection between disappearances from years ago—all pretty girls, all presumed runaways. Now Julie’s instincts have her hunting a predator still very much in the picture. Someone who pulls Julie into a harrowing chase—by abducting her own daughter. . . .

This was unpublishable-y bad--I don't know how an editor could allow this to slip through the publishing house without laughing hysterically--it had to be an office joke.
The story is generic when it isn't incomprehensible, which isn't very much of the time. The protagonist is a one dimensional bitch, almost as if she was written by a dirty old man who hasn't bothered to notice how a woman talks or acts since the 1980's. She also is the type of woman who names her daughter "Cheryl," even though she is my age, and the book was published in 2013.
I would unretire from acting if I were you, Gene Hackman.

Honestly that third star is pretty generous of me. It's more like 2.5 or lower. Mr. Hackman is a better actor than he is a writer. Not that the story was entirely bad but the characters were flat. The biggest emotional responses were from the villain of the piece. In fact, we get to know him best and that's not what I look for in a mystery/suspense book.
Sergeant Juilette Worth was involved in a shooting at a mall and is 'punished' by having to work the cold case files (that was problem number one for me. As I understand it, this goes to experienced detectives, not to someone in lieu of 'desk duty.' Worth finds a link between several cases of missing women but not much of one until someone tries to run her off the road and kill her.
It's driven home that she might be on to something when her best friend is murdered and her daughter kidnapped by this man. Of course we know who it is because we spend a ton of time with the killer/kidnapper/rapist. We do need to because this wouldnt' work otherwise but we spend more quality time with him than we do Worth.
Like I said, not a bad set up but it's really hit and miss. There's very little emotional context for Worth, especially when it comes to losing her friend. She does better with her daughter. But all the characters are flat as three day old pop.
There seems to be some sort of agenda when it comes to health care professionals too because they're all assholes. The psychiatrist who works for the police and Worth has to see her, accuses Worth of being a murderer. Um...okay. The doctor who tends to Cheryl, Worth's daughter, more or less accuses Worth of being the one to hurt her (somehow missing the police guard on this girl). I got the idea that Hackman had some issue with doctors.
And the ending was just plain bad. I hated it.
Would I read another one by Hackman? If the library had it, maybe. (The only other one I know of at this moment is a Western so...)

Predictable Pursuit
Predictable and unbelief. Serial killers are rarely this well behaved and in control and their victims almost never live to tell about it and cops aren't this naive.

Needs an editor. Lots of sentence fragments, too many characters are whackadoodles with strange language tendencies.

When I was 13 or 14, I frequented a wonderful used book store that was crammed full of every kind of old book imaginable. Sagging shelves reached almost to the low ceiling. Mildewed novels were piled on top of antique tables and scattered beneath chairs. The aisles were so narrow that two people couldn't fit at the same time. I spent all the hours I could in there, buying dozens of cheap, dog-eared, and stained thrillers and horror pulp paperbacks. I loved reading those ridiculously overblown things so much.
This novel reminded me of those old books, which is good and bad. Good because it brought back treasured memories; bad because the writing was, well, bad. Frankly, I expected more from Mr. Hackman. I guess I assumed he had developed a keen ear for dialog through his years of acting, but I was wrong. Who the hell talks like this?! It was so stilted and unnatural. And who behaves like this?! It read like it was the script for a very painful 70's cop show that got canceled right after the pilot. Very disappointing. But - what a great actor! Loved him in Hoosiers!
Sir, rest now with Betsy and your beloved Zinna. You are missed.

Gene Hackman is no stranger. As two time Academy Award winning actor, he is a household name worldwide. He acted in such classics as The French Connection, The Conversation , Unforgiven , Superman , and Young Frankenstein. He retired from acting in 2004 and began a second career as a novelist. After co-writing a number of historical novels, he wrote a fine western titled Payback at Morning Peak. And moving forward from there, he is crossing over to thriller with his latest novel.
Pursuit is the story of Sergeant Julie Worth of the Missouri State Patrol. She’s a no-nonsense cop, sharp and strong-willed. When she takes down a shopping mall shooter, the Missouri State Criminal Investigation Unit hands Julie cold case duty. Confined to the office, Worth browses through old files when one particular case involving the disappearance of a teenager catches her attention. When she is unintentionally drawn into an investigation that closes in on the kidnapper, things begin to take a dangerous turn. Cheryl, Worth’s teenage daughter, is kidnapped.
Now it is up to Worth to get her daughter back. But Charles Clegg is no ordinary soul. He is a monster, who kidnapped and killed women. Pushing herself almost off the edge, Worth hunts for Clegg while Cheryl’s life is hanging in the balance.
Pursuit by Gene Hackman is wonderfully crafted. It will keep you on the edge of your seat with its gripping story and sharp plot.

It was okay, but only barely...Gene Hackman is a good actor, but not a writer! The book was disjointed; it was written more like a script for TV than an actual book. The characters were flat and the action was erratic. I won't be looking for any more of his books.
September 25, 2022
Boring. Basically a ‘90s thriller… but every character talks like Gene Hackman. Who, I am convinced, has never met a real life woman, since female character dialogue is atrocious in this
March 26, 2025
The writing was that of a junior high school student. The story was repeatedly anti-climactic. A waste of time.

Did I say that I greatly admired Gene Hackman the actor? Probably. Now I think he's a great author as well. I much enjoyed Wake of the Perdido Star and Payback at Morning Peak but Pursuit is another step up.
Having written a seafaring yarn and a western, Mr Hackman now tackles the modern thriller. Forget all the cold case novels you've read and TV series watched, this is how it should be done. It's set in Missouri and tells of a small sadistic man who's been abducting and sometimes killing people (mostly but not exclusively women) for years and getting away with it.
In Pursuit, however, he's bitten off more than he can chew in the shape of Julie, an incredibly tough single mom police sergeant. What follows is thrilling. Say no more.

Honestly, I don't understand all the extremely negative reviews. "Pursuit" is not masterpiece, but it definitely works as an entertaining, frequently-tense thriller. It tells the story of Julie Worth, a police sergeant who starts to investigate a series of old abduction cases, and whose daughter suddenly gets kidnapped. It's all quite cliched --a strong, independent protagonist, a girl in peril, a valiant best friend, and a psychopathic antagonist.
Nevertheless, the novel works. Maybe it's because of the structure of the story, which includes chapters from both Julie's and the kidnapper's perspective. Or maybe it's Gene Hackman's (yes, THAT Gene Hackman) writing, which is quite to-the-point, and yet, fluid and arresting. It's not the most original plot in the world, but it does motivate you to keep reading. It certainly feels more honest and detailed than most pot-boilers I've read. So... even if you're no fan of Hackman, you might just enjoyed "Pursuit". I certainly did, and it may even motivate you to read his first novel, a Western!

Who doesn't know Gene Hackman? Didn't realize he was an author. I gave this a 4 as the ending disappointed me. Well written though, had me on my feet guessing.
Sgt Julie Worth is a single mother and works with the Police force in Missouri.
She works by the book. Who would imagine going into the mall would end up being chaotic. There's a hostage situation. "put your gun down, I'm a police officer" without waiting for backup she took down the perpetrator. She gets 2 weeks in the basement of working with coldcases as a disciplinary action. She comes across some cases that maybe related as she digs more she finds out her daughter, Cheryl abducted. Being so close to the case she finds herself wondering should I go with instincts or by the book.

I have always loved Gene Hackman as an actor and the characters he has portrayed in his movies; now I have another avenue to keep an eye on him - as an author! I loved reading Pursuit as it is very well written and the suspenseful plot kept me reading far into the night!
Several reviewers mentioned that the writing was poor and stated that the broken sentences needed better editing but I disagree; I think it was written this way to show the reader that the person making those statements was trying to figure out a reason why the events were happening this way. Isn't that the way we all think at times of stress?
I really enjoy this book immensely and I think my next step is to check out the other books he has written.

This novel is meticulously plotted, and offers some thoughtful insights into the mind of the antagonist, but -- oddly for work by an Oscar-winning actor -- dialog seemed uneven to me, often sounding stilted or improbable for the characters it was being voiced by. Consequently, Julie, the state police sergeant and single mother whose look into cold cases inadvertently triggers her teenage daughter's abduction, comes across as brittle rather than "by the book," and her partner never seems like more than a stock character.
June 19, 2014
The second novel penned by actor Gene Hackman, the first being a western. This one involves a Sergeant with the Missouri State Patrol digging into an old cold case that becomes quite hot when her daughter gets abducted. The story is actually quite good and Hackman has the right stuff here. With a bit of polish this novel could have hit an easy four stars. It just seemed a bit rough around the edges.
February 14, 2014
I was curious about this book because of who wrote it. I like Gene Hackman as an actor. I think I like him even better as an author. The book held the suspense to the very end. Never a dull moment.
August 15, 2025
This is a three-star thriller, the extra star is for Hackman, who I always loved as an actor. The opening premises are all good and well done in the Patterson style, couple-page chapter, sparse description format. Eventually though, problems with the telling pile up (almost like it was halfway between a novel and an extended screenplay).
I don't want to harp on the issues at length, but one of them is the main protagonist--Sergeant Julie Worth, Missouri State Police/Highway Patrol. A good cop with a tough reputation--internally a little worried that maybe she's too quick to use the gun. That's all well and good. By the time you're nearing the end of the novel however, you're a bit bewildered about how every other cop in the universe doesn't really do much of anything investigatively. They are either hindrances to Worth (whose daughter becomes enveloped in the hunt for the killer when said killer abducts her for a couple of weeks!), or just plain zeros. This could potentially work--if ever explained or justified--and if Worth herself were at the top of her game mentally and physically the whole time. But neither of these is the case. I just kept asking myself: "Why aren't the other cops doing anything at all to move this investigation along?? Not even while Worth is sleeping??!!"
And one more thing.... Hackman didn't seem to be able to decide if his killer was a truly terrifying psychopath that couldn't be stopped, or a shitty little runt who simply hadn't run into anyone that could swat him down like a fly yet. He seems to play both roles and, of course, the problem is that once you seem him playing the latter role too much, the former becomes pretty unconvincing. Sure, he's a psycho--but he becomes comic and pathetic.
A fast read, a wish a more satisfying one. Rest in Peace, Gene!

It was ok as a detective story but it wasn’t deeply engaging and that’s because the story and the characters were thinly rooted. As a lifelong Missourian, it was fun to have it set in the state until the actual pursuit began. The geography in the story made no sense. I used to live in central Missouri and know the directions the Missouri and Osage Rivers flow and where they converge. I know where Iberia is, and where the Lake of the Ozarks is. If you’re going to set a story in a rural area, use a map. Have respect for the area and the people who live there. Rural people here don’t sound like Ma and Pa Kettle. Missouri is an interesting setting for stories but if you’re not a native, you need to do your research to reflect its true spirit.

A line in Shania Twain's song best describes this book: "It doesn't impress me much!" Juliette is a state patrolman whose marriage ends, making her bitter, and with a teenage girl who chooses to run away. Hooking up with a "dude" offering her a ride results in being confined to a basement chamber, a situation that drives Mom into a frenzied pursuit. The dude becomes a creep with a history of killing runaway girls as well as others who anger him. As Mr. Clegg hides his prey in his lakeside cabin in the Ozarks, he is always one step ahead of the police. Juliet is driven to save her daughter and then driven to put the creep out of commission.
The plot is similar to the Cowboys and Indians movie of the 1940s, with a lot of shooting and chases, but few deaths or captures.

Surprising talent
At Gene Hackman’s recent death, I was surprised to read that he was a novelist as well as a celebrated actor. I have to admit that I chose to read “Pursuit” out of curiosity, not expecting that I’d even want to finish it. But in spite of an oddly discombobulated beginning, its well-rounded characters had me hooked and each twist in the story pulled me deeper into the mystery. It’s a wonderful read - and left me wishing he’d given us a much longer list of his writings to enjoy.

I pushed myself to get through to nearly a third. It would be nice to finish a book after my recent string of "left unfinished."
Apparently Gene had a higher opinion of his talents than I do, or maybe he didn't think editing was necessary, or both. As I write the story has achieved an average rating of 3.67 stars from 355 readers, so obviously he's not the only one that thinks highly of his work. I don't.

No dull moments in this suspenseful thriller. The heroine, her partner, and police chief were not just likable, but believable. The villain is also believable while not so likable which is the expected role of the criminal. I enjoyed Hackman’s story structure of alternating chapters between the heroine and the villain.
June 28, 2022
Hackman's first novel reads even better the 2nd time around. It's well-paced as we follow Julia's approach to hunting down a callous killer who thinks all-too-highly of himself. I liked how Julia's career instills survivalism in her daughter, also.
September 1, 2022
This was an interesting book. I read it in 4 days. It was about a Julie, a cop who is on desk duty and decides to go over cold cases. She is trying to connect cases about missing girls. It gets real hairy when he daughter gets kidnapped. I found it a real page turner and enjoyable.
July 17, 2024
I didn’t personally connect much with the characters. The plot was pretty straightforward as well bit reasonably entertaining. The villain was fully detestable and it was easy to root for the protagonists. Overall it was an okay novel. Not great, but not really bad.
December 14, 2020
I enjoyed the fast pace of this book and the use of a female detective. Her daughter is taken and she doesn't quit until the case is solved.

OMG!!! Not only a page turner. There were also times I was not just turning pages but squirming as I read. Wow a must read if you like suspense.
