Count on hearing, in a bind (7)
I believe the answer is:
trussed
'in a bind' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'count on hearing' is the wordplay.
'count on' becomes 'trust' (I've seen this in another clue).
'hearing' shows a homophone (sound like).
'trust' sounds like 'TRUSSED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for trussed that I've seen before include "Bundled up" , "Tied up" , "Bound up tightly" , "Dusters (anag) - bound" , "Secured" .)
