Destroy (4)

Ross

'destroy' is the definition.
(I know that ruin is a more specific form of desolate)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ruin that I've seen before include "Destroy or bankrupt" , "financial disaster" , "Destroy completely" , "financial hardship" , "Reduce to bankruptcy" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Telegraph, The Independent, the King Feature Syndicate, The Sun, The Sunday Times, The Times, the Evening Standard, The Star Tribune and The Mirror.
