Any last move for personal investigator? (7)
I believe the answer is:
analyst
'personal investigator?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'any last move' is the wordplay.
'move' indicates anagramming the letters.
'any'+'last'='anylast'
'anylast' anagrammed gives 'ANALYST'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for analyst that I've seen before include "He separates things, say systems, into component parts to study them" , "Freud, perhaps" , "Chemical researcher" , "Psychological therapist" , "Expert who examines and dissects, say systems" .)
