Forged deeds Tory put through the shredder? (9)
I believe the answer is:
destroyed
'through the shredder?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'forged deeds tory' is the wordplay.
'forged' indicates an anagram.
'deeds'+'tory'='deedstory'
'deedstory' anagrammed gives 'DESTROYED'.
'put' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for destroyed that I've seen before include "in ruins" , "Put an end to" , "Demolished, ruined" , "Took out" , "Damaged irreparably, ruined" .)
