Dickens's ___ Heep (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uriah

'dickens's heep' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for uriah that I've seen before include "Dickens hypocrite ..... Heep" , "'Umble man from Dickens (first name)" , "Biblical figure" , "Husband of Bathsheba" , "12 [HITTITE] officer" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
