Article about fiction produced by foreigner (5)
I believe the answer is:
alien
'foreigner' is the definition.
('alien' can be a synonym of 'foreigner')
'article about fiction' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'fiction' becomes 'lie' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'an' placed around 'lie' is 'ALIEN'.
'produced by' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for alien that I've seen before include "Foreign, strange" , "Little green man, perhaps" , "Foreign - film directed by Ridley Scott" , "Unfamiliar; foreign" , "extraneous" .)
