Daughter of Ahasuerus? (3)
I believe the answer is:
sue
'daughter of ahasuerus?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'of ahasuerus?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SUE' can be found hidden inside 'ahasuerus'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sue that I've seen before include "Proceed legally against (someone)" , "Start proceedings against (someone)" , "Little Susan" , "Institute legal proceedings (against someone)" , "Use to prosecute" .)
