Came adrift at the club (4)
I believe the answer is:
mace
'the club' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'came adrift' is the wordplay.
'adrift' is an anagram indicator.
'came' is an anagram of 'MACE'.
'at' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for mace that I've seen before include "Spice; heavy club" , "Tear gas - spice" , "Came to get nutmeg spice" , "Spice from the nutmeg seed" , "put on the rack?" .)
