Detectives follow them (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leads

'detectives follow them' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for leads that I've seen before include "Takes initiative" , "Directs" , "stars" , "Actors who play principal roles" , "Guides; wires" .)

I've seen this clue in the Family Time, the L.A. Times Daily, the Universal and The Wall Street Journal.
