Grails domain Named query for a list of string

I have a simple Grails application. I have domains as below

class Author implements Serializable {
   ....
   static hasMany = [
        book : Book 
   ]
}

class Book implements Serializable{

   Author author
   Genres genres
   static belongsTo = [author: Author , genre: Genres ]
   static mapping = {
    .....
       author lazy: false
   }
}

class Genres implements Serializable{

    String title

}

Now I have a requirement where I have a list of Genres title, I need to retrieve all the authors who has atleast one book in one of those Genres. I need to write a named query in Author class. I tried the following query

hasGenre {cl ->
    'book.genre.title' in cl
}

And I pass a list of string as follows

 Author.hasGenre(genereTitleStringArray)

But this does not seems to be working. I have some other straightforward named-queries which works fine. So when I retrieve including "hasGenere" this does not seem to affect the retrieval. What am i doing wrong? I'm quite new to this area

Thanks in advance

Have you been using list() method? if no, you must use it to get your entity from namedQuery, because namedQuery return NamedCriteriaProxy.Class:

author = Author.hasGenre(genereTitleStringArray).list()

For me such code is working good, in my Author i have:

static namedQueries = {
    hasGenre { cl->
        'book.genres.title' in cl
    }
}

Book the same. What about Genres you must also add dependency one-one(if you haven't):

 static belongsTo = [book: Book]

or one to many:

static hasMany= [book: Book]

For me current code is working good, good luck.

P.S. I'm using grails 2.3.11

The proper syntax would be 

 static namedQueries = {
       hasGenre {genreName -> 
                book{
                   genres {  
                       eq 'title' genreName 
               } 
           }
       }
   }
