Gently interrogate clue for 'Flee' (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
feel out
'gently interrogate clue' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'flee' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
an anagram of 'flee' is 'feel' which is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'out' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'for' acts as a link.
