Detective left out wordplay that's unsophisticated (8)
I believe the answer is:
homespun
'unsophisticated' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'detective left out wordplay' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'wordplay' could be 'pun' (synonyms) and 'pun' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'homes' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'that's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for homespun that I've seen before include "Artless and straightforward" , "Simple, unsophisticated" , "Unsophisticated - not made in mill" , "Folksy - open mush (anag)" , "Unsophisticated -- posh menu (anag)" .)
