Hercule's creator (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agatha

'hercule's creator' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for agatha that I've seen before include "...... Christie, author" , "- - Christie (lit.)" , "-- Christie, English novelist" , "- Christie, twentieth century crime novelist" , "...... Christie wrote great detective stories" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal.
