First victim in list from the Bastille (4)
I believe the answer is:
abel
This clue might be a double definition.
'first victim' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'list from the bastille' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abel that I've seen before include "Slain biblical brother" , "Victim of murderer" , "one killed early" , "The first murderee?" , "tragic figure" .)
