Crossword Genius

Approach unfinished story that's similar (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

comparable

'similar' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'approach unfinished story' is the wordplay.
'approach' becomes 'come' (e.g. as imperative).
'unfinished' means to remove the last letter.
'story' becomes 'parable' (parable is a kind of story).
'come' with its last letter taken off is 'com'.
'com'+'parable'='COMPARABLE'

'that's' acts as a link.

(Another definition for comparable that I've seen is " Similar".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
