Charybdis, for one (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maelstrom

'charybdis for one' is the definition.
(I know that Charybdis is a type of maelstrom)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for maelstrom that I've seen before include "confused state of affairs" , "Confused situation" , "Whirlpool, turmoil" , "great confusion" , "violent upheaval" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
