Bounce back from the frantic or hectic (8)
I believe the answer is:
ricochet
'bounce back' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'frantic or hectic' is the wordplay.
'frantic' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'or'+'hectic'='orhectic'
'orhectic' anagrammed gives 'RICOCHET'.
'from the' is the link.
(Other definitions for ricochet that I've seen before include "Glance" , "Rebounding bullet" , "Glancing blow" , "Glancing rebound" , "Skip" .)
