Book that might be written by Defoe? (6)
I believe the answer is:
daniel
'book' is the definition.
(book of the Bible)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for daniel that I've seen before include "-- Barenboim, -- Boone" , "- Defoe, English writer" , "Make larger" , "He did time in a den of lions" , "Lions' den survivor" .)
