A story with a hidden meaning (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allegory

'a story with a hidden meaning' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for allegory that I've seen before include "Meaningful story" , "Short moral story" , "Parable or symbolic story" , "tale with hidden meaning" , "Symbolic narrative" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
