Hello,
'Jane is confused by Mary's strong reaction to Tom's pursuit on a lead against Albert.'
What does 'pursuit on a lead against someone' mean here? What does 'on a lead' mean here?
Thanks a lot. |

| A �lead� is a clue or guiding indication to something. �On a lead� means �onto a clue�. �Pursuit� means �chase�, �a pastime� or �an occupation�. 'Pursuit on a lead against someone' means �the chase of a clue against someone or going after someone based on some useful information�. |
