Cruel woman to continue without PR (6)
I believe the answer is:
ogress
'cruel woman' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ogress that I've seen before include "man-eater" , "Female giant of fairy tales" , "Female giant in fairytales" , "Female giant in fairy tale" , "Formidable woman" .)
