Fictional sleuth, Jane ___ (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

marple

(Other definitions for marple that I've seen before include "Miss - - , A. Christie sleuth" , "Agatha Christie's female detective ..." , "northern town" , "See 21" , "Miss ---, Christie detective" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
