Comfort in misery (6)
I believe the answer is:
solace
'comfort in misery' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for solace that I've seen before include "amusement" , "Kind of comfort - a close thing" , "Comfort at a time of sadness" , "Something that comforts distress" , "Comfort in time of distress" .)
